BCCI kept out of 83’ World Cup Anniversary party

The 25th anniversary celebrations of India's 1983 World Cup-winning campaign will not involve the Board of Control for Cricket in India in any capacity. It is reported that the BCCI was reluctant to get involved because a few members of that squad, including the captain Kapil Dev, have shifted to the rival Indian Cricket league (ICL), which the board has refused to recognise.

"I'm not hurt that the board is not organising the function," Kapil told the paper. "Why should I be hurt? The important thing is not whether the board is backing off because of me or the ICL, but whether we will invite the board members or not. Right now, it doesn't look like that we'll interested in calling them. This is an event by Sunny [Gavaskar] and I'm helping him with it."

The BCCI also confirmed they weren't doing anything to honour the cricketers. "Let them do whatever they're doing," Ratnakar Shetty, the BCCI's chief administrative officer, said. "We haven't got any invitation from them for any intimation."
