The International Cricket Council on Monday suspended its two-Test ban on Indian captain Sourav Ganguly.

The council said it would ask a member of its Code of Conduct Commission to examine the possible appeal by the Board of Control for Cricket in India against the punishment.

"He [Ganguly] is permitted to play international cricket pending the outcome of the appeal," the ICC said in a media release posted on its website.

Earlier report

The ICC said it had received a notice from the BCCI stating its intention to appeal against the suspension.

"Should the BCCI proceed with the appeal, the ICC will appoint a member of the ICC Code of Conduct Commission to hear the case. The commission member will have seven days to hear and determine the appeal," it said.

Ganguly was found guilty by ICC match referee Clive Lloyd of the charge of slow over-rate by India against Pakistan in the BCCI platinum jubilee one-day international match in Kolkata last Saturday.

The release said it would forward additional details on the findings of Lloyd to the BCCI and would await details from the BCCI on the grounds of any appeal.
