The website said that Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Zaheer Khan, Gundappa Viswanath, Sandeep Patil, Sanjay Manjrekar, Aakash Chopra, Ajit Agarkar, Venkatesh Prasad, Saba Karim, Murali Kartik and Deep Dasgupta were “unanimous” that India should attempt to defend the CT title they won in 2013. The BCCI is mulling a pullout from the CT despite the SC-appointed CoA making it clear that such a decision could not be taken without its consent. The Board is likely to take a decision in this regard at its Special General Body meeting on May 7 in New Delhi.
