Edited sentence: Dalmia challenged the decision and went to the court.Dalmiya deliberately stirred the trouble by demanding a right of appeal from the ICC, which was refused, and also demanding, in concert with the UCBSA that Denness be replaced as match referee for the following test or it would be cancelled (the UCBSA were very short of money at the time and unable to bear the loss of a cancelled test).In later years, he was often accused by the media of taking the cricket players and spectators for granted, thereby not giving much care to the development of the game's infrastructure in India.Late the following year, he was expelled from the board for alleged misappropriation of funds refusing to provide certain documents.Though initially rejected by many cricket playing nations, despite his winning the ICC Presidential elections by a 25-13 margin in 1996, he was unanimously elected as the chairman of the ICC International Cricket Council a year later in 1997 for a period of three years, a period in which his work greatly helped to enhance the fortunes of ICC
