Now BCCI is giving clean chit to the players..... BCCI gives ‘clean chit’ to three players named by Lalit Modi The BCCI on Monday said that since the players play international cricket, they fall under the jurisdiction of ICC.
BCCI secretary Anurag Thakur said “there is nothing in it” when asked about the ICC acknowledging a letter from Modi in June 2013, claiming that two cricketers from India and a West Indian were paid in cash and kind to the tune of Rs 20 crore each.
“Lalit Modi had written a letter to ICC, so they informed BCCI about the letter. The three players are international players and fall under the international jurisdiction. There is no information on these players from ICC so far, so it is in a way a clean chit for them to play,” said Thakur.
When somebody plays international cricket, the ICC is responsible. Only the ICC can answer as per their investigations. It falls under ICC’s purview. They have said that they are inquiring, so only they can answer on this.”
“If there was anything, they could have reported back to us,” he said further on the controversial issue.
