"When people make fictitious claims -- they make or erase records -- I don't know. That is why we have given a November 1 deadline to the ICC. If they don't release the money we will go to court," Dalmiya said in an interview to 'The Week' magazine. Dalmiya's outburst came after the ICC Development International withheld India's guarantee money from the Champions Trophy and the World Cup after the Global Cricket Corporation made a claim of $47.34 million for losses suffered during the World Cup primarily because of Indian players dilly-dallying over terms and conditions during the mega event held in South Africa earlier this year. "The GCC said it will raise Rs 550 million through commercial rights for ICC (during the World Cup). We found that it (GCC) was absolutely incompetent and inadequate in marketing commercial rights," Dalmiya said. "Our demand is simple. We are sure these claims are fictitious and we want our money back. We are not waiting for what ICC does. "It is our money and why should it lie somewhere else. If that money had been with us, we would have spent some more on cricket," Dalmiya said. in-depth coverage > Cricket World Cup 2003 > |
