New Delhi: Pacer S Sreesanth called the Kerala high court ruling on reimposing life ban from cricket activities as the ‘worst-decision ever’ on Tuesday.
A division bench of the Kerala high court on Tuesday upheld the appeal made by the BCCI against the earlier single bench verdict that lifted the life ban on the bowler in August this year.
The bowler took to Twitter expressing anguish at the decision of the high court.

The bench, comprising Chief Justice Navaniti Prasad Singh and Justice Raja Vijayaraghavan, gave the verdict on a petition filed by the BCCI against a single-judge bench’s order, lifting the life ban imposed on the 34-year-old pacer.
The division bench said there was no violation of natural justice against the cricketer and quashed the single bench order in Sreesanth’s favour. In its appeal, the BCCI had said the decision to ban the cricketer was taken based on the evidence against him.
Sreesanth made his international ODI debut in 2005 against Sri Lanka in Nagpur. He made his Test debut against England in 2006.
Sreesanth has 87 wickets at an average of 37.59 with best match figures of 8/99 in 27 Test.
