"I faxed my resignation to president of the association Dr Farooq Abdullah in view of the many problems dogging the cricket governing body in the state including the boycott by some players," Wazir told PTI.

He said he had put in a lot of efforts to end the stalemate between the association and the disgruntled players.

"I succeeded to a large extent but there were few boys who felt that justice has still not been done. I have requested the president to accept my resignation," Wazir said.

The treasuer, who is believed to be instrumental in blowing the whistle on multicrore embezzlement scam in the JKCA earlier this year, rued that other office-bearers of the association did not put in any efforts to end the deadlock.

"There are many office-bearers in the association but they did not do anything to resolve the issue. It is not humanly possible for me to put in so much time into the works of the association," Wazir said while explaining his decision.

Meanwhile, the disgruntled players locked the office of the JKCA at Sher-e-Kashmir Cricket Stadium. They also reportedly called on several members at their residences to seek an explanation about their stand on the ongoing tiff with Bedi. More
