‘BCCI misleading people’

On behalf of the panel, secretary Gopal Shankarnarayan emailed Anurag Thakur, Ajay Shirke, Aniruddh Chaudhry and Rahul Johri, highlighting a number of statements that has been attributed to the key functionaries of India’s richest sporting body. The email states: “It is unfortunate that the directions/contents of the e-mail have been misinterpreted, as is evident from the press reports to state that the present India-New Zealand series is at stake.” 

The e-mail clearly mentioned once again that banks have not been instructed to freeze BCCI accounts. “The Supreme Court Committee has not frozen the bank accounts of BCCI. Nor has it objected to the banking operations/payments relating to routine administration and conduct of cricket matches/tournaments/ activities.”
