The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) on Monday decided to postpone their AGM, scheduled for March 19. The decision was taken at an urgent Apex Council meeting. The reason for the postponement according to several MCA officials was that it is too close to the IPL beginning in Mumbai and Pune on March 26.

It is learnt that the nod to postpone the AGM came from Sharad Pawar, the former president and mentor of the association, after a group of MCA members and officials met him recently. “There is time till September 30 to hold the AGM,” an official remarked.
