Former Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president N Srinivasan`s return to the sports administration in the role of Chennai Super Kings` chairman will be a `great boon` for the franchise, said the team`s CEO, Kasi Viswanathan.

"See, it`s a great boon for CSK and he`s been the best administrator for us and I`m very happy that he`s come back into CSK. He`ll be in an advisory role only because he doesn`t travel much, but we`ll be in contact with him," Viswanathan told PTI. A few weeks ago, the 80-year-old N Srinivasan was appointed as CSK`s chairman in the franchise`s board meeting.

"Both of us are in Chennai only. So he`s in day-to-day contact with us," said Viswanathan, who added that Srinivasan would also oversee the management of the CSK`s properties in SA20 and Major League Cricket. He will be in charge of everything (all CSK properties)," said Viswanathan.
