¡°We don¡¯t give credence to someone calling a pay-hike as peanuts. We don¡¯t need advocates between the players and us,¡± he told ANI.
He also maintained that the issue would be addressed as soon as possible.

¡°I had a meeting with Virat Kohli in Hyderabad. He said this was an issue and we are sorting it out. Kumble has also given a proposal on this.¡±
Well clearly the BCCI needs no mediator between them and the team.?

Shastri had recently said that the recent pay hike was 'peanuts' and felt the cricketers were paid less than their counterparts in England and Australia.
