RCB moves Karnataka High Court against CAT report on stadium stampede
Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], July 8 (ANI): The Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) has approached the Karnataka High Court against a Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) order blaming the team for the stampede near Chinnaswamy Stadium that claimed 11 lives. The CAT had observed that RCB was 'prima facie responsible' for the gathering of around 3-5 lakh people outside the stadium after their maiden IPL title win. As CAT stated in its report that the announcement was 'sudden', giving no time to the Police to prepare for the crowd of three to five lakh people. RCB claimed that CAT didn't adhered to principles of natural justice and challenged CAT's findings, stating they were made without giving RCB an opportunity to be heard. The IPL faranchise pointed out that a fact-finding inquiry is being conducted by the Bengaluru DM and Deputy Commissioner, making CAT's observations premature. 'When the findings of fact are still awaited and there is no conclusive finding rendered by any body as to the purported role of the Petitioner in the said incident, the consideration of these disputed facts by the Hon'ble Central Administrative Tribunal, is premature,' the plea said. So far as seeking Police permission for the victory celebration is concerned, RCB states that as per its agreement with service provider M/s DNA and KSCA , it was these entities that were responsible for obtaining the necessary permissions and ensuring compliance with applicable law. The plea thus seeks to expunge the remarks made against RCB. Earlier, a two-person bench of the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) observed Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) to be 'responsible' for the gathering of 'about three to five lakhs people' outside their home venue of M Chinnaswamy Stadium following their maiden Indian Premier League (IPL) title win on June 4, reported ESPNCricinfo. The bench comprising Justice BK Shrivastava and Santosh Mehra, owned by Diageo, had created a 'nuisance' by proceeding with trophy win celebrations without seeking or even getting required regulatory permissions. The remarks were a part of 29-page order issued on Tuesday by CAT, which heard a case filed by Inspector General and Additional Commissioner of Police, Bengaluru (West), Vikash Kumar. Vikash was among four cops suspended by state govt, alleging 'substantial dereliction of duty' and not seeking 'guidance' causing the situation to get 'out of control, meant a lot of misery, loss of precious life and embarrassment' to the government. Vikash went on to challenge his suspension, and the CAT quashed the government order, saying the cop should be reinstated. The CAT order stated that neither the franchise nor its event management firm, S DNA Entertainment Network Private Limited, sought any permissions to conduct the title celebration parade at the stadium. CAT also pointed out that for the organisation of such events, an application has to be made a week before under the Licensing and Controlling of Assemblies and Public Procession (Bengaluru city) order, 2009. However, neither RCB nor DNA did so. The order also said on day of IPL final, June 3, Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) chief executive officer Shubhendu Ghosh wrote a letter, on behalf of team's event management firm to Cubbon Park Police Station (adjacent to Chinnaswamy stadium) that of the team won the trophy, there would be 'potential victory parades' around the ground which would 'end with victory celebrations' inside the stadium. The route for the parade was shared, but permission was not sought. The CAT order said that when the letter was submitted, it was 'not certain' that RCB would win, and it did not have 'any request for granting the permission' to hold the victory parade and celebrations. 'The organiser did not wait for the response of the Police,' the order said as quoted by ESPNCricinfo. 'At the eleventh hour, they submitted a letter and started the scheduled programme,' it added. The order also put out a sequence of social media announcements made by RCB on June 4, starting with the 'victory parade is scheduled in Bengaluru' the first post was done at 7:01 AM, the order said, 'at 8 am RCB posted a link on their Instagram. 'Army, We can't wait to be back to the Home of Champions and celebrate with all of you today. Details out soon.' At 8:55 AM, the same post was issued again, accompanied by a statement from star batter Virat Kohli. The order also said that on 3:14 PM on June 4, RCB posted on their socials that a victory parade will be held at 5 PM on the same day, followed by celebrations inside Chinnaswamy. The CAT pulled up RCB for 'unilaterally' putting up information on celebrations without 'obtaining the permission' or without the 'consent' of the police.' The RCB posta did advice fans to guidelines set by police and other authorities' for peaceful and prosperous conducting of the event, it also informed fans of free passes issued on franchise's official website with a 'limited entry' disclaimer. The order said since the post had no information disbursement of passes' it 'implied' the event was 'open to all' affair. The order said that this all led to 'gathering of immense proportion' at the venue, which could accommodate only 35,000 people. The order said that policy was stretched already, having to regulate the crowd in the night immediately after team's six run win at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium. The cops came under immense burden as the state government organised a 'felicitation' for players. 'Therefore, prima facie it appears that RCB is responsible for the gathering of about three to five lakh people,' the order said. 'RCB did not take the appropriate permission or consent from the Police. Suddenly, they posted on social media platforms and as a result of aforesaid information the public were gathered. Because of the shortage of time on 04.06.2025, the Police were unable to make the appropriate arrangements. Sufficient time was not given to the Police. Suddenly, RCB created the aforesaid type of nuisance without any prior permission,' it added. The order came out in defence of cops, saying that they are 'human beings', neither God (Bhagwan) nor Magician and did not have the magical powers like 'Alladin ka Chirag' capable of fulfilling a wish only by rubbing a finger.' CAT is a quasi-judicial body, dealing with issues of government and public servants. RCB itself is not part of the proceedings. Their observations will have no bearing on the inquiry set by the state government for the probe of the stampede. The inquiry is being done by ex-High Court Justice Michael da Cunha. (ANI)

Big Change Loading In England XI vs India For Lord's Test? Dinesh Karthik Picks Star To Replace Ollie Pope
Dinesh Karthik has thrown his weight behind Jacob Bethell to take over the crucial No. 3 spot in England's Test batting line-up from Ollie Pope, calling the young batter 'the next big one to watch out for' in English cricket. Speaking on the Sky Sports Cricket Podcast Live from Lord's, Karthik praised Bethell's versatility, hunger, and maturity, suggesting he could be England's long-term solution in the top order. 'I am a bit biased, I would pick him (Bethell), I would bat him at No. 3,' said Karthik, who currently works as the batting coach for Royal Challengers Bangalore, Bethell's IPL franchise. 'At this point in time, I would pick him ahead of Ollie Pope, but if you are an England coach, Pope got a 100 in the previous game.' Pope's inconsistency has raised questions despite his century in the series opener. He managed just eight runs in the second innings at Headingley, followed by a golden duck and a laboured 24 at Edgbaston, as England crashed to a 336-run defeat. Karthik believes Bethell's flexibility makes him a standout candidate. 'Bethell, you can almost bat him anywhere from No. 3 to No. 7, he is ready. In the IPL, we picked him in such a way that he has the flexibility to open, bat at three, or even middle of the order.' 'What I really liked about him was his ability to absorb information and quickly transfer it to his game. Very young, very hungry, and most of all, he is extremely dedicated towards the sport. He is single-minded and wants to do well in life and become the best—if you have that as your goal, you can't go wrong,' he said. While the focus remains on Bethell's potential, England's captain Ben Stokes is facing growing scrutiny. After a tactical decision to rest Jasprit Bumrah backfired spectacularly for India in the first Test, India captain Shubman Gill responded with a double hundred (269) and 161 at Edgbaston to lead his side to a historic victory. This has intensified the pressure on Stokes, who has yet to make a significant impact with the bat in the series. 'Now Stokes has to do all that thinking and has to get some runs, let's be honest,' said Nasser Hussain. 'The opposition captain is getting a shedload of runs, and Stokes' run-getting has fallen away. So, he is under a bit of pressure,' he said. Still, Hussain praised Stokes' leadership and emotional intelligence. 'England players love playing for Ben Stokes, but he is also tough. I spoke to Jurgen Klopp and asked what leadership is about, and he said it is about being their friend but not being their best friend. I think Stokes has got that.'
