FIFA suspends the All India Football Federation!!!

Published

on

The FIFA Council Bureau has unanimously decided to suspend the All India Football Federation (AIFF) with immediate effect due to undue influence by third parties, which is a serious violation of the FIFA Statutes.

On May 12, the Supreme Court of India heard an appeal by the Delhi Football Club alleging that Praful Patel, who is the president of the AIFF, continues to hold office illegally despite his term ending in December 2020.

During the trial, Judge D.Y. Chandrachud led by Justices Surya Kanth and P.S. Narasimha ordered the former Chief Election Commissioner S.Y. Qureshi and former Indian football Captain Bhaskar Ganguly members should lead the federation until a new CoA body is elected. In accordance with a new AIFF constitution. The current committee of administrators is to carry out the day-to-day governance of the All India Football Federation, adding that the CoA will be free to take the help of the erstwhile AIFF committee to conduct tournaments, select players and run them. But they have not changed the administration of AIFF for more than three months as per the order.

The FIFA suspension was lifted after the order to restore the powers of the AIFF Executive Committee and set up a Committee of Administrators was revoked and the AIFF administration regained full control over the day-to-day affairs of the AIFF.

As a result of this suspension, it is notable that the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup 2022 scheduled to be held in India from 11-30 October 2022 cannot be held in India as currently planned. FIFA is assessing the next steps regarding the tournament and will refer it to the Council Bureau if and when necessary. FIFA is in constant constructive engagement with the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports in India and hopes that a positive outcome can still be achieved.

ෆිෆා විසින් සමස්ත ඉන්දීය පාපන්දු සම්මේලනය අත්හිටුවයි!!!

FIFA කවුන්සිලයේ කාර්යාංශය FIFA ප්‍රඥප්ති බරපතල ලෙස උල්ලංඝනය කිරීමක් වන තෙවන පාර්ශවයන්ගේ අනිසි බලපෑම් හේතුවෙන් වහාම ක්‍රියාත්මක වන පරිදි සමස්ත ඉන්දීය පාපන්දු සම්මේලනය (AIFF) අත්හිටුවීමට ඒකමතිකව තීරණය කර ඇත.

2020 දෙසැම්බරයේදී AIFF හි සභාපති වන ප්‍රෆුල් පටෙල් ධුර කාලය අවසන් වුවද නීතී විරෝධි ලෙස දිගටම තනතුරු වල රැදී සිටින බවට චෝදනා කරමින් දිල්ලි පාපන්දු සමාජයේ අභියාචනයක් ඉන්දීය ශ්‍රේෂ්ඨාධිකරණය මැයි 12 දින විභාගයට ගන්නා ලදි.

නඩු විභාගයේදී, විනිසුරු D.Y. චන්ද්‍රචුඩ් ප්‍රමුඛ විනිසුරුවරුන් වන සූර්ය කාන්ත් සහ P.S. නරසිංහ යන විනිසුරු මඩුල්ල නියෝග කළේ හිටපු ප්‍රධාන මැතිවරණ කොමසාරිස් S.Y. කුරේෂි සහ හිටපු ඉන්දීය පාපන්දු නායක භාස්කර් ගංගුලි සාමාජිකයින් ලෙස CoA නව ආයතනයක් තෝරා පත් කර ගන්නා තෙක් සම්මේලනය මෙහෙයවිය යුතු බවයි. නව AIFF ව්‍යවස්ථාවකට අනුකූලව. වත්මන් පරිපාලකයින්ගේ කමිටුව සමස්ත ඉන්දීය පාපන්දු සම්මේලනයේ එදිනෙදා පාලනය සිදු කිරීමට නියමිත අතර, තරඟාවලි පැවැත්වීම, ක්‍රීඩකයින් තෝරා ගැනීම සහ ක්‍රියාත්මක කිරීම සඳහා පැරණි AIFF කමිටුවේ සහාය ලබා ගැනීමට CoA හට නිදහස ඇති බව පැවසීය. නමුත් ඔවුන් නියෝගයට පටහැනිව මාස තුනකට අධික කාලයක් පරිපාලනයේ කිසිදු වෙනසක් සිදූ වී නොකර ඇත.

මෙම අත්හිටුවීමෙන් බලපෑමක් ලෙස 2022 ඔක්තෝබර් 11- 30 දිනවල ඉන්දියාවේ පැවැත්වීමට නියමිත FIFA U-17 කාන්තා ලෝක කුසලාන 2022, දැනට සැලසුම් කර ඇති පරිදි ඉන්දියාවේ පැවැත්විය නොහැකි වීම කැපී පෙනේ. FIFA විසින් තරඟාවලිය සම්බන්ධයෙන් මීළඟ පියවර තක්සේරු කරමින් සිටින අතර, අවශ්‍ය නම් සහ අවශ්‍ය විටක එය කවුන්සිලයේ කාර්යාංශය වෙත යොමු කරනු ඇත. FIFA ඉන්දියාවේ යෞවන කටයුතු හා ක්‍රීඩා අමාත්‍යාංශය සමඟ නිරන්තර සාධනීය සම්බන්ධකම් පවත්වමින් සිටින අතර මේ සම්බන්ධයෙන් ධනාත්මක ප්‍රතිඵලයක් තවමත් ලබා ගත හැකි වනු ඇතැයි බලාපොරොත්තු වේ.

அகில இந்திய கால்பந்து கூட்டமைப்பை ஃபிஃபா சஸ்பெண்ட் செய்தது!!!

மூன்றாம் தரப்பினரின் தேவையற்ற செல்வாக்கு காரணமாக அகில இந்திய கால்பந்து கூட்டமைப்பை (AIFF) FIFA சட்டங்களை கடுமையாக மீறுவதன் காரணமாக உடனடியாக இடைநீக்கம் செய்ய FIFA கவுன்சில் ஒருமனதாக முடிவு செய்துள்ளது.

2020 டிசம்பரில் AIFF இன் தலைவராக இருக்கும் பிரஃபுல் படேலின் பதவிக் காலம் முடிவடைந்த போதிலும், சட்ட விரோதமாக பதவியில் நீடிப்பதாக டெல்லி கால்பந்து கிளப்பின் மேல்முறையீட்டை மே 12 அன்று, இந்திய உச்ச நீதிமன்றம் விசாரித்தது.

விசாரணையின் போது, ​​நீதிபதி டி.ஒய். சந்திரசூட் தலைமையிலான நீதிபதிகள் சூர்ய காந்த் மற்றும் பி.எஸ். நரசிம்மா உத்தரவிட்டார், முன்னாள் தலைமை தேர்தல் ஆணையர் எஸ்.ஒய். குரேஷி மற்றும் முன்னாள் இந்திய கால்பந்து கேப்டன் பாஸ்கர் கங்குலி ஆகியோர் உறுப்பினர்களாக புதிய CoA அமைப்பு தேர்ந்தெடுக்கப்படும் வரை கூட்டமைப்பை வழிநடத்த வேண்டும். புதிய AIFF அரசியலமைப்பின் படி தற்போதைய நிர்வாகிகள் குழு, அகில இந்திய கால்பந்து சம்மேளனத்தின் அன்றாட நிர்வாகத்தை மேற்கொள்வதாகும், மேலும் போட்டிகளை நடத்துவதற்கும், வீரர்களைத் தேர்ந்தெடுப்பதற்கும், அவற்றை நடத்துவதற்கும் முன்னாள் AIFF குழுவின் உதவியைப் பெற CoA சுதந்திரமாக இருக்கும் என்றும் கூறினார். ஆனால் இந்த உத்தரவுக்கு எதிராக மூன்று மாதங்களுக்கு மேலாகியும் நிர்வாகத்தில் எந்த மாற்றமும் செய்யவில்லை.

AIFF செயற்குழுவின் அதிகாரங்களை மீட்டெடுப்பதற்கும், நிர்வாகிகள் குழுவை ரத்து செய்யப்பட்ட பின்னர், AIFF நிர்வாகம் AIFF இன் அன்றாட விவகாரங்களில் முழுக் கட்டுப்பாட்டை மீட்டெடுத்த பிறகு ஃபிஃபா இடைநீக்கம் நீக்கப்படும்.

இந்த இடைநீக்கத்தின் விளைவாக, இந்தியாவில் 2022 அக்டோபர் 11-30 வரை நடைபெறவிருந்த FIFA U-17 மகளிர் உலகக் கோப்பை 2022 தற்போது திட்டமிட்டபடி இந்தியாவில் நடத்த முடியாது என்பது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது. ஃபிஃபா போட்டிகள் தொடர்பான அடுத்த படிகளை மதிப்பீடு செய்து வருகிறது, தேவைப்பட்டால், கவுன்சில் பணியகத்திற்கு அனுப்பும். இந்தியாவில் இளைஞர் விவகாரங்கள் மற்றும் விளையாட்டு அமைச்சகத்துடன் FIFA தொடர்ந்து ஆக்கபூர்வமான ஈடுபாட்டைக் கொண்டுள்ளது, மேலும் இது சம்பந்தமாக ஒரு நேர்மறையான முடிவை இன்னும் அடைய முடியும் என்று நம்புகிறது.

Afghanistan’s White-ball Series against Sri Lanka officially postponed

Published

on

By

The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) announces that the Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka bilateral series, originally scheduled to commence on 13 March in the United Arab Emirates, has been rescheduled to the last quarter of 2026 due to logistical challenges, including flight constraints arising from the ongoing regional situation.

The series, which was to mark the first occasion of Afghanistan hosting Sri Lanka, was scheduled to feature six white-ball matches. The three T20 International matches were planned to be staged at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on 13, 15, and 17 March, followed by three One Day Internationals at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on 20, 22, and 25 March.

Following the receipt of the required sanction from the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB), preparations had been finalized for hosting the matches across the two venues. However, in early March, unforeseen developments created logistical constraints that affected travel arrangements and operational planning for the series.

To address the situation, the Afghanistan Cricket Board held a series of consultations with key stakeholders, including the Emirates Cricket Board (ECB), Sharjah Cricket Stadium (SCS), and Dubai International Cricket Stadium (DICS). A joint meeting convened by the ACB on 4 March resulted in a recommendation to monitor the situation and reassess by 6 March, in the hope that conditions would improve. A subsequent follow-up meeting on 7 March recommended waiting until 9 March before making a final determination.

Despite the collective efforts of all parties to proceed with the event as planned, the logistical challenges remained beyond operational control, leading to the decision to postpone the series and explore rescheduling options.

Throughout this process, the Sri Lanka Cricket Board (SLC) was kept fully informed, and the decision to postpone the series was made in consultation and with the consent of Sri Lanka Cricket.

The preferred venue for the rescheduled series remains the United Arab Emirates, and the new dates will be announced in due course following further coordination between the respective boards and stakeholders.

Kirsten, a former South African international cricketer, brings with him a wealth of coaching experience and a distinguished playing career. Between 2008 and 2011, he served as head coach of the India men’s national team, guiding them to victory in the 2011 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup. He later took charge of the South Africa men’s national team from 2011 to 2013, during which South Africa rose to become the number one ranked team across all formats.

Most recently, Kirsten worked as a consultant with Cricket Namibia during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, further expanding his global coaching footprint.

As a player, Kirsten represented South Africa from 1993 to 2004, amassing 14,087 international runs across Tests and ODIs. His record includes 21 Test centuries and 13 ODI centuries, cementing his reputation as one of South Africa’s most reliable batsmen.

Sri Lanka Cricket has emphasized that Kirsten’s appointment is part of a broader initiative to revamp the National High Performance Center. His primary responsibility will be to prepare and lead the Sri Lanka National Men’s Team in their campaign for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2027, which will be jointly hosted by South Africa, Namibia, and Zimbabwe.
