Chirayu IPL's interim chief

Businessman Chirayu Amin has been named the interim chief of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in place of the suspended Lalit Modi, officials said on Monday.
Amin, who runs a pharmaceutical business in the western city of Vadodara, is one of the five vice-presidents of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and a member of the IPL's governing council.
"Chirayu Amin will be the interim head of the IPL, which we consider to be a great property," BCCI president Shashank Manohar told a packed media conference at the board headquarters in Mumbai.
Manohar said former national captains Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri will decide how to organise future versions of the IPL.
All three are members of the tournament's governing council, whose strength has been reduced to 13 after Modi's suspension earlier on Monday.
