The Dhaka High Court on Sunday declared amended constitution of the Bangladesh Cricket Board illegal.
The court said the regulatory body National Sports Council does not hold the authority to make the change.
The order implies that the amended constitution of 2008 has been upheld, and the next elections would be held under it.
Justice Sarah Mahbub and Justice Abdur Rab delivered the verdict after hearing the writ petition jointly filed former BCB director Mobasher Hossain and Yusuf Jamil, a local organiser.
In December last year, the court had asked the NSC why the amended constitution should not be considered illegal, putting a stay order on the new constitution for three months.
