Stalemate After BCCI, ICC And ICL Discussion
23 February 2009
No agreement to end an ongoing dispute was reached despite three hours of talks between the International Cricket Council (ICC), the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the Indian Cricket League (ICL) in Johannesburg.
The three parties had come together to discuss the ICL's application to be recognised by the ICC as unofficial cricket and that proposition will now go back before the ICC Board meeting in Dubai in April.
In attendance were David Morgan and Haroon Lorgat (ICC), N. Srinivasan (BCCI), Subhash Chandra and Himanshu Mody (Essel Group, which runs the ICL).
“I am grateful to all parties for coming together with the best of intentions and the discussions took place in a friendly and cordial manner but, unfortunately, we were not able to come to a successful conclusion in our discussions," ICC President Morgan said in a statement.“The ICL’s application for approval as unofficial cricket will now go before the ICC Board at its April meeting in Dubai," he confirmed.
