Cricket Association of Bihar (CAB) secretary Aditya Verma on Thursday threatened to file a case of perjury against Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Anurag Thakur.

"My legal team is ready to file perjury against Anurag Thakur for his false statement in the Supreme Court during the hearing of SLP no 35160/13 & Civil appeal 4235, 4236/14 & 1155/15 in the matter related to affiliation of Bihar Cricket," Verma said in a statement.

"We have enough affidavits of Anurag Thakur which showed that how they tried to cheat the young cricketers of Bihar by given continuously wrong statements on oath in the highest court of the country," the statement added.

Verma also added that "from last 16 years, after the bifurcation of the state of Bihar, the budding cricketers of Bihar have failed to show their talents at the state, national or international level due to step-motherly behaviour of BCCI".
