Mukherjee unfazed by reports of Srinivasan's pitch criticism

There's speculation that Mukherjee's days as Eden's curator would be over after India-Pakistan one-dayer on January 3 as CAB might go for another local man.

Unhappy with the functioning of the outspoken Mukherjee, the Board supremo, in a brainstorming meeting yesterday, had reportedly asked CAB chief Jagmohan Dalmiya to make the 83-year-old fall in line or else get ready for a harsh step.

Mukherjee, however, remained unperturbed.

"Let Srinivasan say whatever he wants to. I don't listen to him. I don't even speak to the (CAB) President before preparing a wicket. I act as per my knowledge of the wicket. I also don't read the newspaper reports. Let them write what they want," Mukherjee told PTI this morning.

 

Asked whether his days were numbered, Mukherjee said, "It's a million dollar question."

A CAB official, on condition of anonymity, had earlier divulged the details of the meeting that took place between Srinivasan and Dalmiya. MORE
