In a fresh letter to WICB President Dave Cameron and the inter-governmental Caribbean community (CARICOM) Secretary General Irwin LaRocque, the BCCI has demanded that compensation be paid at the earliest for West Indies' "sudden, arbitrary withdrawal" from the tour of India last October.
The Indian Board has threatened legal action in case the WICB fails to respond to the letter, published by 'ESPNCricinfo', within a week
"However, it is with regret that the BCCI finds itself in a position where its expectations have remained wholly unfulfilled, with there being no progress in finding a solution that is acceptable to the BCCI, despite the 40-day time period having long since elapsed."
"The BCCI cannot any longer hold off from pursuing its claims against WICB in the appropriate forum being the courts in India. We trust that CARICOM will understand our position," Patel has written in the most recent communication to the WICB.
"If the WICB fails to comply with the requisitions contained in our letter dated 31st October 2014 within a period of 7 days from receipt of this letter, the BCCI shall initiate legal proceedings in the appropriate forum against WICB without further intimation.
