S. Sreesanth had expressed his hopes about a probable comeback to cricket a few days ago. He conveyed this message through his Twitter handle on September 10, 2020.
On September 13, 2013, BCCI banned him for life with relation to a spot-fixing scandal.
The BCCI ombudsman last year reduced the ban to seven years.
September 13, 2020 marks the end of Sreesanth’s seven-year ban. However, the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA) has not received any communication about the lift on the ban.
“We hope the communication would come soon and that Sreesanth could play for Kerala this season, though there is no clarity yet on domestic competitions as of now,” a source in the KCA said. “We have had discussions with Sreesanth about his training and fitness and we found he is very keen to play.”
There are high chances for Sreesanth to play for Kerala in the Ranji Trophy.
