The Board of Control for Cricket in India will not attempt to take unilateral action against the Global Cricket Corporation or its agents, the International Cricket Council claimed in a press statement today.

ICC president Ehsan Mani said he had discussed the issue with BCCI chief Jagmohan Dalmiya and it was agreed that no action would be initiated by the BCCI at this time.

"The ICC is dealing with the claims made by GCC and the matters being disputed are contractual matters between the ICC and GCC," he said.

"On this basis, I have agreed with Mr Dalmiya that the BCCI will not make any claims against GCC or initiate any investigations into its marketing activities at the present time."

Mr Mani also welcomed the comments by Mr Dalmiya that he would seek to sit down with the ICC to resolve the contractual issues that have arisen between the two bodies.

"I look forward to the chance to sit down with Mr Dalmiya to resolve the outstanding contractual issues and I welcome his comments to resolve these issues in this way," he said.

GCC has made a claim against the ICC for damages arising from World Cup 2003. The ICC is currently developing a comprehensive response to GCC's claim.

The process of resolving these matters is expected to take several months.
