It has been reported earlier that Yes Bank and Bank of Maharashtra that operate BCCI's accounts chose to freeze the BCCI accounts on Monday. An upset Board of Control for Cricket in India has hit back, with board president Anurag Thakur saying, "Cannot say anything about India-New Zealand series. The BCCI is the richest board that hosts the IPL, but we have to deal with matters like this."With the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) threatening to call off the ongoing series between India and New Zealand, the Justice R M Lodha-led committee on Tuesday clarified that they didn’t direct banks to freeze the accounts of the Board and it carry on with its routine expenses. Fuming at the defiance of its recommendations, the Lodha panel had “directed” banks, where the BCCI holds accounts, not to disburse “large” funds to the State associations, a decision taken by the Board at its Special General Meeting on September 30. New Zealand Cricket, however, had not received any communication from the BCCI regarding the cancellation of the remaining fixtures, and the team was said to be preparing for the third Test in Indore as planned. They are scheduled to travel from Kolkata to Indore on Wednesday.
