Lalit Modi has taken India's cricket bosses to court over his suspension as head of the scandal-hit Indian Premier League.
Modi's lawyer Mehmood Abdi asked the Bombay High Court to stay disciplinary proceedings against his client and appoint a mutually acceptable and independent person or panel to probe any wrongdoing by him.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), which owns the IPL, suspended Modi in April following the raft of allegations against him, which also sparked a government investigation.
Modi, 46, faces allegations of corruption, indiscipline and money-laundering in the hugely successful Twenty20 league and is also accused of secretly planning an IPL-style tournament in England.
Modi has submitted written replies to the charges levelled by the BCCI which include rigging bids, holding proxy stakes in teams and receiving kickbacks in return for broadcasting deals.
The BCCI appointed a three-member disciplinary committee, to probe the charges against Modi.
The committee has until October the 25th to decide the issue.
