The decision to grant amnesty was taken at BCCI’s Working Committee here. “More’s amnesty application has been accepted,” BCCI vice-president Rajiv Shukla told reporters. Prior to the fifth edition of the IPL, More had written to the Board seeking amnesty. The former chief national selector will now be eligible for the BCCI’s one-time benefit payment.u00a0
