Meanwhile, according to the reports of Cricbuzz, the last word on the CVC sports is not out yet. It was reported that the successful bid by the private equity firm for the Ahmedabad franchise has gone into negotiations with the American company and they are trying to clarify to the BCCI officials that its investment in a UK betting firm, which has become a bone of contention, is not illegal.
As a result, there has been a delay in CVC getting a Letter of Intent by BCCI. However, this has not been the case with the owners of the Lucknow franchise, RPSG Group of Sanjiv Goenka as they have already received the letter of intent.
