BCCI not bullies, says ICC chief

New Delhi: India is not a bully at the International Cricket Council (ICC), its president David Morgan said on Friday, responding to criticism from various quarters that the Indian board always had its way owing to its financial muscle. “I refer to my experience with India at the ICC under the leadership of Mr (Jagmohan) Dalmiya, Mr (Sharad) Pawar and now Mr Shashank Manohar. I do not accept that India acts in a bullying fashion,” Morgan said. He also sought to dispel the fear of an Indian takeover of the ICC when Sharad Pawar succeeds him at the helm. “I have another year in office and have every confidence in Sharad Pawar that he would be a good leader when he takes over in a year’s time,” Morgan said.
