Miffed BCCI's president-in-exile N Srinivasan today refused to talk to the waiting mediapersons here at the airport after he mistakenly got hit by the camera of a TV crew.
As the media jostled for a reaction from Srinivasan on whether he will be attending the tomorrow's Working Committee meeting as the BCCI's president, a defiant and combative Tamil Nadu strongman retorted, saying: "Would you allow me to go to my car. I am entitled to go, so allow me to go."
Srinivasan got hit on his forehead by the edge of a camera as the hounding media pressed for his comments and that evoked sharp reaction from the veteran cricket administrator.
"I got hit by this camera. You cannot hit me with the camera. It's not okay with me. I won't answer," Srinisavan said angrily before getting into his car.
