Mumbai : A day after Union Minister Sharad Pawar met Bal Thackeray requesting him to withdraw Shiv Sena threat against Australian cricketers' participation in IPL, the party on Feb 8 said it would take a final call on the issue in two-three days.
"Thackeray would take a final call on the issue of Australian players in two-three days," Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana' said today. Pawar had met Thackeray at the Sena chief's 'Matoshree' residence in Bandra last night. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president Shashank Manohar and Sena executive president Uddhav Thackeray were also present at the two-hour meeting. "For me, the country is more important than the game," Saamana quoted Thackeray as telling Pawar. "I will never tolerate India's insult," the Sena supremo said.
