Mumbai: The International Cricket Council could not reach a final decison regarding the the hosting of the Champions Trophy on Wednesday. The matter now has been referred to the Board members again.

According to the sources in the ICC, president David Morgan and vice-president Sharad Pawar along with ICC officials - CEO Haroon Lorgat and General manager - Cricket David Richardson met and discussed for few hours.

The ICC has also invited the PCB's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Shafqat Naghmi, according to sources.

The high profile meeting could not come to the conclusion. David Morgan is believed to have brought the message from Cricket Australia's chairman Creag O'Conor and CEO James Sutherland from Beijing where they discussed about the possibilities of not sending the Aussie team to the event in Pakistan.

"The matter will again be discussed in the Board meeting via teleconference soon after deciding the availability of the members and a final decision will be taken thereafter," the source added.
