How can I comment on it?” said thesecretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India Jaywant Lele onTuesday night reacting to the government’s decision not to allow theIndian cricket team to take part in second edition of Asian TestChampionship beginning later this month.Asian Cricket Foundation President Jagmohan Dalmiya, when contacted inKolkata, declined to comment on the government decision saying “Iwould not like to comment on the basis of media reports. I willcomment only after receiving the official confirmation from the Indiangovernment.”Dalmiya however had said earlier that the Asian Cricket Council (ACC)would go ahead with the Asian Test Championship as per the scheduleeven if India pulled out. He had said at the end of a two-day ACFconclave held in Kolkata on August 16 that ACC would ‘bend backwards’to accommodate India even at 11th hour but not at the cost ofdisrupting the ATC schedule.Dalmiya had however conceded that the “championship will lose much ofits glamour if India pulled out.”
