Making the announcement in Kolkata on Thursday, BCCI president Jagmohan Dalmiya, who heads the committee, said he had a telephonic discussion with the other two committee members - Kamal Morarka and Ranbir Singh Mahendra - during the day.

"It has been decided that the committee members would meet in person soon to take a final decision on the case," he added.

He refused to disclose the date of the meeting, saying, "Such things cannot be made public till the letters for the meeting are dispatched to the members."

The Board's verdict on the Kale affair, the biggest scandal to rock Indian cricket since the betting controversy, has been delayed due to the non-availability of Morarka, who had been abroad on a personal trip.

The bribery issue came to light in mid-November following complaints by two selectors, Pranab Roy and Kiran More, that Kale had offered them Rs one million (10 lakh) each for a place in the Australia-bound Indian team last year.

Based on their allegations, the Board suspended Kale and appointed Bar Council of India chairman D V Subba Rao as Inquiry Commissioner to probe the allegations.

On receiving Rao's report, the disciplinary committee framed charges against the cricketer and issued him a show cause notice.
