ICC Board Meeting in Perth From Saturday
Thursday, January 29, 2009 at 6:39 pm
The important items on the agenda include Zimbabwe, Future Tours Programme post-2012, ICC Champions Trophy 2009 and Indian Cricket League.
A task team headed by the President of the West Indies Cricket Board, Dr Julian Hunte will present an interim report to the ICC Board on Zimbabwe.
This follows a visit to Zimbabwe by Dr Hunte and ICC Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat in November last year.
With some members expressing reservations about the idea of an enhanced Test championship, the ICC Board will discuss a way forward in the process of developing a fixtures model, given the current FTP is due to finish in May 2012.
The ICC Board will discuss preparations for the tournament, due to take place in September/October.
At its October 2008 meeting the Board agreed the event would take place between 24 September and 5 October 2009. At that same meeting it was further agreed that because the event was reduced in duration (12 days including a reserve day for the final instead of the 17 days set aside in 2008) it would be played in one city.
Board will also take up and discuss the ICL’s application to be approved by the ICC.
The ICC Board consists of the chairman or President from each of the 10 Full Members plus three Associate Member representatives.
Also present at ICC Board meetings is the ICC President, who chairs proceedings, the ICC Chief Executive and the ICC Vice-President, as well as, by invitation of the President, the ICC Principal Advisor.
