Former Australian cricketer tweets BCCI to pay IPL dues

Former Australia batsman Brad Hodge has brought notice to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) over the unpaid dues for his services at Kochi Tuskers Kerala in the 2011 season of the Indian Premier League.

"Players are still owed 35% of their money earned from ten years ago from the @IPL representing Kochi tuskers. Any chance @BCCI could locate that money?," wrote Hodge on his twitter handle while reacting to a report from former England international Isabelle Westbury on India women cricketers not getting their prize money from last year's T20 World Cup.

The right-handed batsman represented 14 matches for KTR and scored 285 runs at an average of 35.63.

KTR franchise was terminated by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) just after one season and the owners could not pay the 10% bank guarantee element of the franchise fee.
