Clarke, Lalit Modi settle out of court

England and Wales Cricket Board chairman Giles Clarke has settled his libel case with former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi out of court

Clarke had alleged Modi was plotting to form a rebel Twenty20 competition in England and had held talks with some counties. That prompted Modi to carry out legal proceedings but a statement from the ECB yesterday has said matters have been settled on confidential terms.

“This statement confirms that the parties have agreed to settle the litigation on confidential terms.”
