Dalmiya counting on Mani's help

AFP, New Delhi
The World Cup contracts row is certain to be resolved now that Ehsan Mani had replaced Malcolm Gray as president of the International Cricket Council (ICC), lagmohan Dalmiya of India said on Friday.
Taking a swipe at Gray, the Indian cricket board chief said the row, which threatened the participation of top stars at the World Cup in South Africa earlier this year, boiled over only because the Australian had not "handled it the right way".
"Everybody wants to serve the game well, but the methods are different," Dalmiya said in a television interview.
"I have no problem with Gray. No jealousy or anything. Somewhere down the line, it might have appeared that we were not going in the right direction. That's why we are not great buddies."
The ICC has withheld India's share of World Cup revenue — between seven and nine million dollars — until a settlement is reached on the 50-million-dollar compensation claimed by its marketing agent, Global Cricket Corporation (GCC).
Indian officials said early this month they would go to "any extent" to secure the money.
India is the only one of the 10
Test-playing nations whose entire share of World Cup revenue has been withheld by the ICC.
India's cricketers had refused to sign the original players' terms for the World Cup which asked them to surrender control of their personal endorsement and image rights in favour of the tournament' s official sponsors.
Dalmiya said he was confident that Mani, the new ICC chief from Pakistan whom he regards as a personal friend, will be able to resolve the row.
"He (Mani) has now put the matter on the right track," said Dalmiya without elaborating.
"It (the row) could have been sorted out earlier. I know him
personally and I'm sure he'll do what is in the best interest of the
game. "He's very pragmatic in his approach and I think he'll be able to achieve it.
"All of us wish that these matters are resolved soon. You can't live with a dispute all the time. It's also important to ensure that there are no disputes in future."
Dalmiya last month accused the GCC of not marketing the World Cup properly and threatened to investigate the matter, but backed down on a request by Mani.
"We have accepted Mani's request to avoid confrontation and also do not want the matter settled through arbitration," Dalmiya said then.
"There is a lot of behind-the-scenes activity going on which I do
not want to disclose now, but I am confident the matter will be settled amicably."
