BCCI chief: Lalit Modi doesn't fascinate me
June 21, 2011  10:57

Former IPL chief Lalit Modi went viral on Twitter yesterday lambasting the BCCI every few minutes in fresh tweets over the ICL.

Today, Indian Cricket Board chief Shashank Manohar rejected Lalit Modi's tirade against the BCCI and ridiculed him by saying that the former IPL Commissioner might fascinate the media but not him.

"I don't want to react at all to Mr Modi. Modi seems to fascinate the media. He does not fascinate me," BCCI chief Manohar said.

Modi, in his Twitter page, had alleged that the BCCI forced the International Cricket Council to change its constitution to outlaw the now defunct Indian Cricket League floated by the Essel Group.

In a series of tweets, Modi, who was sacked as IPL Commissioner in April last year, disclosed that the BCCI had wanted ICL to shut shop at any cost and it flexed its muscle to ensure that ICC and the other Cricket Boards fell in line.
