Football's governing body FIFA, suspended the All India Football Federation (AIFF) on August 15 due to undue influence from third parties, which according to FIFA is a &ldquo;serious violation of the FIFA Statutes&rdquo;. This not only dented India's chances of hosting the U17 Women's World Cup in October but India's national teams will not be able to play international fixtures until the suspension is lifted.
But what caused this violation?
The conflict began when former chief Praful Patel stayed in office beyond his term despite completing his three terms and 12 years as AIFF president in December 2020.
The Supreme Court of India ruled it invalid and relieved Praful Patel and his executive committee from their responsibilities. The SC then appointed a Committee of Administrators (CoA) to oversee the functioning of the AIFF it had selected in May 2022. It was also given the responsibility to draft the constitution for the same body.
On July 16, 2022, CoA submitted the final draft constitution of the AIFF to the Supreme Court for its approval. However, the state units of the AIFF expressed their unhappiness with several provisions in the final draft constitution.
On August 3, the Supreme Court directed the holding of elections to the executive committee of the AIFF by forming an Electoral College made up of 36 representatives of state football associations and 36 eminent former football players.
FIFA though threatened to suspend the AIFF and strip off its rights to host the Women&rsquo;s U-17 World Cup in October due to a third-party &ldquo;influence.&rdquo; But the CoA reassured FIFA after the threat that it was on course to set the AIFF in order.
On August 15, FIFA informed the Indian sports ministry that it remained firm in its opposition to individual members&rsquo; inclusion in the electoral college for the upcoming AIFF elections.
Football's governing body finally took the hard call and suspended AIFF a day later. However, FIFA also stated that the suspension will be lifted once an order to set up a committee of administrators to assume the powers of the AIFF Executive Committee was repealed and the AIFF administration regains full control of the AIFF&rsquo;s daily affairs.

Former Indian football team captain Bhaichung Bhutia opened up on FIFA's decision to suspend the All India Football Federation (AIFF) and called it a 'very harsh' call.
However, he also saw it as an opportunity to get the country's system right. 'It's very important that all the stakeholders, the federation and the state associations to come together and get the system right and everybody work for the betterment of Indian football,' he added.
Former star Indian footballer Shabbir Ali also saw the decision as an unfortunate one and said that it was a setback for Indian football. He though feels that the U-17 Women's World Cup would still be held in India. 'I am optimistic that things will fall in place and India won't be robbed off the showpiece event, added the Dhyan Chand Awardee.
Despite FIFA suspending AIFF with immediate effect, football's governing body in its statement said that it was hopeful of a positive outcome and the ban will be lifted if the AIFF administration regains full control of the AIFF&rsquo;s daily affairs.

The murmurs of a rift between Ravindra Jadeja and Chennai Super Kings got louder last month when the all-rounder removed all posts related to CSK from his official Instagram account.
According to a report in the Times of India, nothing is well between the two till now as Jadeja and CSK have not been in touch since IPL 2022. The report adds that unless something miraculous happens in the next couple of months, their 10-year-long partnership might end soon.
Talks of tension between Jadeja and the IPL franchise started doing the rounds during the 2022 edition when the all-rounder relinquished his captaincy to focus and concentrate more on his game. Interestingly, he was made the skipper just before the season began but the Super Kings had a poor run under him.
MS Dhoni was once again handed over the captaincy duties midway and he accepted that captaincy burdened Jadeja's preparations and performances.
However, the speculations will start to intensify if a formal proposal of trading comes from any other franchise in November when the trading window opens up. The report in TOI further states that a couple of top franchises, who will need an Indian captain sooner rather than later, have been in touch with Jadeja. But there has been no official communication on those lines.

Ever since MS Dhoni retired from international cricket, Rishabh Pant had to constantly prove his worth in the Indian team. And the wicketkeeper-batter continues to do so as Dinesh Karthik emerged as a perfect candidate for the finisher's job.
When asked about the potential threat he faced from DK over his spot in the India line-up for the Asia Cup, Pant was quoted as saying by Zee Hindustan that he and DK don't think on those lines. 'We as individuals always want to give our 100 per cent to the team. The rest depends on the coach and the captain and how the team could get an advantage from that,' added the southpaw.
Though Pant and Karthik have been part of India's T20 team since June, both have different roles. While Pant dons the wicketkeeping gloves, Karthik plays as a finisher.

'Chandu sir', as he is fondly referred to, recently guided Madhya Pradesh to their maiden Ranji Trophy title

Acclaimed domestic coach Chandrakant Pandit was appointed as the head coach of the Kolkata Knight Riders on Wednesday.
The IPL franchise made the announcement on social media with their CEO Venky Mysore saying that Chandrakant Pandit's deep commitment to what he does and his track record of success in domestic cricket, is there for everyone to see. 'Chandu sir', as he is fondly referred to, recently guided Madhya Pradesh to their maiden Ranji Trophy title.
He was roped in for the top role after Brendon McCullum decided to step down earlier this year to focus on England's Test coaching job. Interestingly, among the existing 10 franchises, Pandit will only be the second Indian after Ashish Nehra to head the coaching staff of an IPL franchise.&nbsp;

After FIFA banned the All India Football Federation (AIFF) for &lsquo;undue influence from third parties&rsquo;, the Supreme Court on Wednesday told the government to work on lifting the suspension imposed by football's governing body.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Centre, said that the government has already held talks with FIFA following the suspension.
The Supreme Court also stated that India should have the benefit of hosting the FIFA Under-17 Women's World Cup and asked the Centre to take pro active role to hold the event as scheduled in October. If the ban stays, India will be stripped of the hosting rights.
The centre told the court that it had held two meetings with FIFA on Tuesday after it suspended the Indian federation. The matter has been adjourned until Monday, August 22.
This is in fact, the first time that the All India Football Federation (AIFF) has been banned by FIFA in its 85-year-old history.

The Delhi high court on Tuesday appointed a committee of administrators (CoA) to run the Indian Olympic Association. But why was this step necessary?
The Delhi HC's directive came after it said that the IOA was in 'persistent recalcitrance' to comply with the national Sports Code, adding it became imperative that the daily affairs of the apex body to be handled by the CoA.
The Delhi HC also said the CoA will be assisted by Olympic Gold medallist shooter Abhinav Bindra, former long jumper Anju Bobby George, and archer Bombayla Devi.
The decision was taken as the IOA grapples with administrative clutter amid International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) warning to hold the elections as soon as possible.
Narinder Batra had to quit as IOA president in July after the high court ruled that his appointment as life member of ‘Hockey India,’ which allowed him to fight IOA election, was unconstitutional under the sports code. The IOC had then threatened to suspend the governing body if it failed to conduct its election within the coming weeks.
The development comes at a time when the All India Football Federation (AIFF) was banned by football's governing body FIFA for "third party interference".
