MUMBAI: The Indian cricket board (BCCI) has challenged International Cricket Council (ICC) match referee Chris Broad’s resolution to deem the Indore pitch for the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar sequence as “poor”.
Broad’s resolution meant the venue bought three demerit factors.
TOI understands that BCCI has lodged an enchantment with the ICC about Broad’s verdict on the sq. turner.
As per ICC norms, an enchantment like that is heard and decided by the ICC’s basic supervisor (cricket) Wasim Khan and former India captain Sourav Ganguly, who’s at present the chairman of the ICC males’s cricket committee.

However, Ganguly shall be recused from the method as he’s from India, the ICC member nation which has lodged the protest.
The ICC will change Ganguly with another person for this course of.
The BCCI was inspired by the very fact there’s a precedent of such an enchantment being thought-about and the decision being overturned/revised by the ICC.
Last yr, the ICC had reconsidered the ‘below average’ score for the pitch at Rawalpindi for an England-Pakistan Test.
