A senior BCCI official was quoted as saying: “We let the West Indies Cricket Board go scot-free back in 2014 after they pulled out midway. We claimed damages of $42 million but that was also waived by Shashank Manohar after he became the BCCI president for the second time. Now, they have also voted against us at ICC Board. We need to look at these aspects.”
West Indies, who won the Champions Trophy in 2004, failed to qualify for the 2017 event.
