New Delhi: Peeved with the Committee of Administrators (COA), around 13 State units of the BCCI have demanded a Special General Meeting (SGM) on June 22 to discuss lingering policy issues such as players' contracts, a long-standing revenue dispute with the ICC, and commercial ventures of the board.

Incidentally, the SGM if held, will happen before the Supreme Court's next hearing on July 5.

It is learnt that around 13 full member units (minimum 10 full members required) have listed a 10-point agenda forcing acting president CK Khanna to instruct acting secretary Amitabh Choudhary to call for a SGM.

"You need to give three weeks notice to the members and if 10 or more units demand for a SGM, then the secretary is required to issue a notice for the same" an official from East Zone said on Thursday.

While some of the key issues remain the same, a section in the BCCI is livid with the manner in which certain decisions pertaining to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) have been taken of late.

Point No 8 states: "To consider and to take decisions on all matter pertaining to the National Cricket Academy, its programs, and all matters pertaining to the proposed new NCA headquarters."

Senior officials are unhappy with how one highly paid executive associated with the National Cricket Academy is allegedly running the show. The official in question was rapped for organising an U-19 women's ZCA camp in peak­summer.
