WICB marks time with BCCI

Internal problems currently facing the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) are likely to inflict further woes on the West Indies as the regional board seeks to find a mechanism to deal with the future relationship between the two Boards.

A lawsuit worth US$41.97 million and the possibility that all future bi-lateral ties may be severed by the BCCI, continue to haunt the WICB, and recent developments within the BCCI are unlikely to ease the pressure.

The governing body for Indian cricket is currently engaged in a court battle with its former president N Srinivasan that is preventing it from holding general elections.

Last week, the BCCI sought the opinion of the Supreme Court on whether Srinivasan could attend the meetings of the board as the authorised representative of Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA).
