BCCI rubbishes rumours

Chennai: The BCCI has rubbished speculations of a rift of any nature between India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and chairman of the selection panel Krishnamachari Srikkanth.

The Board said in a press release here on Friday, “This is with reference to reports in some newspapers about a ‘meeting' having taken place between the Indian captain and Chairman of Selectors in Chennai on Thursday, at which the BCCI secretary was also present. Apparently some ‘harsh' words were exchanged, and the captain ‘urged' to change the playing XI. The BCCI would like to clarify that these reports are baseless. No such meeting took place.”

BCCI Secretary N. Srinivasan said, “I am extremely disappointed that such reports, without any basis, appeared during an important campaign for India. Dhoni was unwell on Thursday and took rest in his room the whole day.” — Special Correspondent
