AFP, New Delhi :
India is coming under increasing pressure to name a squad for the impending Champions Trophy (CT), with Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid joining calls for the cricket board to quit stalling.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) missed an April deadline for announcing a team, and will hold a special meeting on Sunday to discuss a potential withdrawal from the 50-over international tournament.
But the powerful BCCI is facing mounting criticism over its stalling tactics, which stem from a dispute with cricket’s global governing body over changes to revenue sharing.
Last month the International Cricket Council received a thumping mandate from its members to amend rules around revenue so that less money and power is held by cricket’s “Big Three”-England, India and Australia.
