The BCCI was dealt yet another blow after the Bombay High Court stayed the Board's proceedings against Lalit Modi.
Lalit Modi's legal team, led by Mehmood Abdi, had earlier questioned the legality of the three-member disciplinary committee - comprising Chirayu Amin, Arun Jaitley and Jyotiraditya Scindia - arguing that the panel did not have the BCCI general body's mandate.
Modi has always opposed the nomination of Amin and Jaitley, as they are both members of the IPL Governing Council, when it was headed by Modi. He feels there is bias.
The relieved former IPL commissioner tweeted earlier on Saturday, expressing his pleasure at the High Court's decision.
The hearing of the disciplinary committee, probing charges of financial irregularities against Modi, had earlier been put off until December 27 and 28 after a request from Modi's attorney.
Earlier, the Court also ruled in favour of Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals, who were facing termination.
