Former BCCI president N Srinivasan today hit out at a scribe for asking him in what capacity he attended the SGM of the cricket board.
Srinivasan attended the SGM as a representative of the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA).
However, he stands disqualified to be an office-bearer of TNCA as well as BCCI in the wake of Lodha panel recommendations.
"Where are you from, which channel," Srinivasan questioned a scribe when he asked him in what capacity he attended the SGM.
To which, an visibly angry Srinivasan responded, "I congratulate you, you just now made me (to) shut up".
When the scribe again asked the same question, the former ICC chief said, "Better right (capacity) than you have to ask me".
Srini, who dodged various questions, said he was "happy after BCCI meeting. Every-thing was unanimous".
TNCA's Executive Committee had nominated Srinivasan to be the association's representative at the meet.
