SC directs BCCI to allow Bihar to take part in Ranji Trophy

The Supreme Court has directed the BCCI to allow Bihar to participate in Ranji Trophy and other domestic cricket tournaments. Bihar, who last played Ranji Trophy in 2003-04, were omitted after Jharkhand won the right to play in India's premier domestic tournament. The SC order comes in the wake of a plea by Cricket Association of Bihar Secretary, Aditya Verma.
