A senior official of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has flatly denied that his organisation has been negotiating with the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) for the embattled WICB to pay part of the West Indies' World Cup earnings over to India.
The Trinidad Guardian reported on Saturday that the BCCI will get part of the West Indies' fee payment from World Cup matches in the 2015 event now going on in Australia and New Zealand.
The payments would go towards settling India's claim of almost US$42 million made on the WICB after it aborted the tour of India last year with one limited over match and three Tests not played. The matter arose after the players and their union, the West Indies Players Association, got involved in a pay dispute that has haunted relations between both sides over the last decade and a half in particular.

To be fair, the story about WICB paying back the money from the WC matches did not originate from the WICB and was not quoted as a source or for a comment

What is interesting is that no one from WICB denied the story. Suprised Cameron didn't tweet about that one.

Because BCCI denies it, doesn't mean that negotiations are not on going. It is leaks like these that can scuttle negotiations

CC has been around for well over a decade, and during that period it has presented a mumber of Guardian stories which have turned out to be bullsh*t. So yesterday when I saw the story in Headline I warned against relying on it.
