The BCCI on Tuesday announced that it will not send either the men's or the women's cricket team for this year's Asian Games in China where cricket makes its debut in the Twenty20 format.
The 16th edition of the Games will be held in Guangzhou, China from November 12 to 27 and the BCCI's decision means a loss of potential medals for the country.
"We will not be able to send our team, both men and women, for the Asian Games in China because of international commitments," BCCI chief administrative officer Ratnakar Shetty said in Mumbai.
