BCCI President Shashank Manohar launched a scathing attack on Lalit Modi, accusing him of 'tarnishing' the image of the Board and making misleading allegations that interim IPL Chairman Chirayu Amin was part of a failed bid for the Pune franchise.
Blasting Modi, Manohar said it was in fact the suspended IPL Commissioner who had advised a Pune consortium to rope in Amin as an investor and the interim IPL chief agreed to invest only after the bid succeeded and he had sought the Board's permission.
Manohar also claimed that contrary to Modi's assertions, the IPL Governing Council did not know that City Corporation's Managing Director Aniruddha Deshpande bid for the Pune team in his 'individual capacity'.
"The truth is that it was Mr Modi himself who sent a message to the Pune Franchisees through Mr Ajay Shirke, President, MCA (Maharshtra Cricket Association), asking them to contact Mr Amin and ask him to be a part of the consortium," he revealed.
