CSK and RR to allow back in the league

The teams were sold through the reverse order process for which the base price was set at Rs 40 crores and the bidders had to quote an amount less than that. The lowest bidder was given the authorization. This complete process was required by the suspension of CSK and RR for the involvement of officials and the co-owners in the year 2013 for IPL spot fixing scandal, which was checked out by the Supreme Court appointed Justice (Retired) R.M. Lodha committee. However, both the teams CSK and RR will be allowed back in the league after their suspension.
