S.Africa to support ICC revamp: SL to abstain

08 Feb 2014 - {{hitsCtrl.values.hits}}

Cricket South Africa (CSA) has decided to support ICC revamp proposals while Sri Lanka Cricket has decided to abstain from voting, sources said.

The ICC executive board is meeting now in Singapore to take a vote for proposals that will change governance structure of ICC, they said.

Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and South Africa protested against the resolution. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has changed its stand since and joined the Big Three (India,Australia and England) under the assurance that Bangladesh’s Test status won’t be compromised and also, the big teams will play bilateral series against them. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) still remain adamant.

The proposals require the consent of eight out of ten ‘full member’ boards and as of now the ‘big three’ have eight in their favour with the South Africa's support.(Channaka de Silva)
