ORDER 
By our order pronounced on 2"' January, 20.17 we had requested 
learned amicus curiae, Mr. Gopal Subramaniam, and Mr. Fali S. Nariman, 
learned senior counsel to assist us in nominating the members of the 
committee of administrators to be appointed in terms of the said order. 
Although Mr. Nariman had tentatively agreed to do the needful, he today. 
submits that he may have an embarrassment in accepting the assignment 
on account of the fact that he had been in the year 2009 retained on 
behalf of th.e BCCI. We quite appreciate the difficulty expressed by 
Mr. Nariman and accordingly discharge him of the role assigned to him. 
In 11is place, we request Mr. Anil B. Divan, learned senior counsel, to 
assist the Court and to recommend suitable names for appointment as 
members of the committee of administrators in consultation with the 
amicus, Mr.'Gopal Subramaniam. 
Mr. Gopal Subramaniarn also draws our attention to an inadvertent 
error in our Order, clause 25(i)(f) whereof shall now stand modified/ 
corrected to read as under: 
"25(i)(f) Has been an Office Bearer of the BCCI or a State 
Association for a cumulative period of9 years"
