"I have full faith in the Indian judiciary. I have waited patiently for the past two years, I will wait for another month," said Sreesanth to reporters in New Delhi.
Delhi Police invoked the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act in the IPL cricket spot-fixing case registered against Sreesanth and a few others in 2013.
The long wait...
"We have waited for long, and undergone a lot of trials and tribulations for more than two years. We have faith in the judiciary," Sreesanth's mother, a retired banker, told the media at Kochi before the court opened yesterday.
His sister said Sreesanth is confident and has always said that he has done nothing wrong, so he is sure and confident that the verdict will be in his favour.
Sreesanth's cricketing fortunes took a nosedive when he was arrested on May 16, 2013, and was confined in jail till June 11, following his alleged involvement in the spot-fixing scam.
He has been served a life ban from the game.
Sreesanth is only the second Keralite to win India cap and has represented the country in 27 Tests (87 wickets), 53 ODIs (75) and 10 T20Is (seven wickets).
