CHENNAI: The Kancheepuram District Cricket Association has been divided into two parts — Kancheepuram and Chengalpattu. Each body will have its own members. After following due process, both will be affiliated under the TNCA. The district forum affiliated to TNCA has already framed rules in this regard. Anybody claiming to be authorised by any ex-TNCA official has no right to enrol cricket teams as members of the new or existing district association.
