Sources close to BCCI revealed that BCCI is ready to spent Rs 1.25 crore to those "unnecessary" members. It should be noted that the cricket board needs to appoint a Functional manager to manage the finances. But what will be the role of CoA in that tour remains a big suspense.
It might be recalled that Amitava Choudhary , secretary BCCI was once barred from travelling to Sri Lanka by the CoA as it was unclear what his role will be.
