Jain, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Ombudsman, on Saturday met Indian Premier League team Delhi Capitals advisor and Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) President Sourav Ganguly in the conflict of interest matter regarding former Indian skipper's involvement with a cash-rich league franchise.

After a three and half hour long discussion, Jain asked all parties to give written submissions ahead of his verdict.

Speaking after the meeting, Jain said: "Matter is sub-judice. I have heard both the parties as well as the BCCI and will soon give my order. However, since hearing is over as per principles of natural justice, both parties can give their written submissions before the final order is pronounced."
