New Delhi: In an ultimatum to Kapil Dev and others who have, or wish to, join the ICL, the BCCI today made it loud and clear: 'If you are not with us, you are against us'.
In a meeting at the board president Sharad Pawar's residence in the capital, the BCCI sought to uphold an individual's right to choose but with a rider: choose between us or them.

''It is every individual's right to decide whether he wishes to associate with the BCCI or any other organisatison,'' said BCCI vice-president Rajiv Shukla, reading out a statement after the meeting.
''However, if he associates himself with any other organisation, he will not be able to derive any benefits from the BCCI or be associated with any of its activities,'' he added.
