Stalemate: WIBC/BCCI fail resolution bid

Sat, Jun 27, '15

The Caribbean has waited with bated breath to find out the outcome of the row between the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Well fans can go about their Friday afternoon cool down rather than wait for news from the 2pm press conference today because both parties yesterday failed to come to a decision concerning the re-establishment of ties.

Cricketing ties have broken down between the two bodies after the West Indies team aborted their tour of India last October due to a payment structure dispute with the WICB. The team led by Dwayne Bravo left the tour after the fourth one day international in the mountains of Dharamshala. At that point the Indians were leading the series 2-1 with one match to play at Kolkata. The WICB did not send a team for the three-Test series and Sri Lankan filled the voice by playing a limited overs series against the Indians.
