velu Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Suspended Indian cricket chief Narayanaswami Srinivasan is expected to be anointed as the new ICC chairman at this week's annual conference in Melbourne which is set to address growing concerns about corruption in the sport. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has confirmed the 69-year-old industrialist will stand as chairman of the International Cricket Council despite being suspended by India's Supreme Court as the country's cricket chief. Srinivasan -- seen as the most powerful man in world cricket -- was among 13 people named in a damning report into corruption allegations in the Indian Premier League. The IPL Twenty20 competition has been embroiled in allegations of illegal betting and spot-fixing, including against Srinivasan's son-in-law. Despite the scandal, BCCI secretary Sanjay Patel confirmed Srinivasan would go to Melbourne and was expected to be anointed ICC chairman. "By the month end, India will take a leading role in the ICC. Mr Srinivasan is going," Patel was quoted by the Sydney Morning Herald as saying. "By the month end, India will take a leading role in the ICC. Mr Srinivasan is going," Patel was quoted by the Sydney Morning Herald as saying. "There is no Supreme Court bar on him. Both of us are going to Melbourne. In the last four months we have settled (the issue) with all the full members of the ICC and convinced them about the new structure and the new financial model of the ICC which would be followed in the coming years." Srinivasan's likely ascension to the head of the ICC follows controversial changes last February to the governance of the global governing body, which handed the majority of the powers and revenue to the sport's "big three" nations -- India, Australia and England. http://www.firstpost.com/sports/n-srinivasan-expected-get-nod-icc-chairman-1583231.html?utm_source=FP_HP_LATESTNEWS :bandit: :aha: :aha: Action item #1 : Teach pakistan a nice lesson "Forget about playing in Pakistan , its not even even safe for the players to land" - ICC Mama.

Iconoclast Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Move over Sep Blatter, ICC is about to take over FIFA as the most the corrupt, money hungry greedy sports organization.
yoda Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 There is no reason to stop him from becoming the ICC chairman. Even from the BCCI he has been asked to step aside only so that the IPL probe can continue without his influence. You can't punish someone based on accusations. If that were the case all the players in the sealed envelope should also be asked to sit at home till Justice Mudgal and co. manage to find some real evidence.
