Mumbai: The Indian Cricket Board (BCCI) Wednesday (27 Sep, 2006) is in collision course with the ICC after it rejects a 'Members Participation Agreement' dealing with all tournaments to be held under the aegis of the game's global body from 2007-08 till 2015.

"We have rejected the Members Participation Agreement in its present form and have formed a committee to go into it and suggest which are the minimum parameters we can agree upon," Treasurer N Srinivasan says after the Board's 77th AGM Wednesday (27 Sep, 2006).

"It's a voluminous document and all our members felt today at the AGM of the Board that there were several clauses about which we have reservations," he says.

Asked which clauses the BCCI is objecting to, Srinivasan refuses to spell them out by saying they are many issues and not one or two to be singled out.

"They include the issues regarding marketing of these tournaments plus player endorsements. At this moment I cannot specify these as there are many issues not agreeable to us," he says.

Srinivasan, who says the BCCI probably is the only member of the ICC to have objected to the MPA, says that the committee to go in detail into the document and report to the president about parameters agreeable is to be headed by its Vice President and Marketing Committee member Lalit Modi.
