Mumbai, Mar 18:
The BCCI on Friday decided not to allot any of the matches of the forthcoming ICC Champions Trophy to the Cricket Association of Bengal saying the CAB put unreasonable conditions for hosting matches in the tournament.

"CAB has lost the chance of hosting Champions Trophy because of putting unreasonable conditions," said BCCI vice-president Lalit Modi after a meeting of the BCCI and International Cricket Council (ICC) representatives in Mumbai on Friday night.

Modi said the BCCI wanted to distribute the matches equitably among all the regional centres, but the CAB’s demand for specific matches was a hindrance.

The BCCI vice-president informed that the CAB did not agree to come under the rotation policy even if they hosted an India match during the prestigious tournament.

However, the BCCI insisted on applying the rotation policy to the Champions Trophy matches and decided against giving any match to the CAB, effectively meaning that there would be no match at the Eden Gardens during the Champions Trophy.
