BCCI not happy with Dhaka as venue for ATC final

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is not happy about the Asian Cricket Council's (ACC) decision to award the Asian Test Championship final to Dhaka (Bangladesh).

BCCI secretary JY Lele told PTI in Mumbai on Wednesday that if Bangladesh does not reach the final of the quadrangular Test tournament (the other teams being India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka), they should not host it. "We (board) have also written a letter to the ACC to change the venue+ he said.

"I will be leaving for London shortly to attend ACC's next meeting on June 20 and we will sort out things there. We have agreed to participate in the Asian Test Championship but have to rework the dates according to our schedule," he added.

"If India and Pakistan reach the final, we should host the final as we will be playing the league game in Pakistan but only after getting government clearance," Lele said. "If India and Sri Lanka make the final, it should be held in Sri Lanka," Lele added.
