Gavaskar's resignation was not on the agenda: Agashe
2 January 2001

Former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar's resignation from the National Cricket Academy (NCA) committee, after a tiff with its chairman Raj Singh Dungarpur last week, was not at all on the agenda of the NCA meeting, its vice chairman Dyaneshwar Agashe said in Mumbai on Tuesday.

Speaking to newsmen after the NCA meeting, Agashe said reports in a section of the media that the meeting would be discussing Gavaskar's issue was not correct "as it was never on our agenda."

"We only discussed the financial aspects and about setting up of Zonal cricket academies on the lines of NCA," he added.

"The Gavaskar issue is an internal matter and I think it will be settled in course of time while the resignations of Hanumant Singh and Vasu Paranjpe, who quit as NCA director and coach for personal reasons, have been accepted as their term was for just six months," Agashe said.

"As far as the zonal academies are concerned, we have asked the two advisors and committee members, Brijesh Patel and Polly Umrigar to visit all the possible centres and submit a report after which we will take a decision," he added.

Agashe, who chaired the meeting as Dungarpur is away in England, said no other matter was discussed.

BCCI secretary Jaywant Lele was a special invitee for the meeting which was attended by Umrigar, Agashe and executive secretary Sharad Diwadkar while Patel did not attend it.
