ICC Is An Event Management Company And Doesn’t Run Cricket: Ian Chappell
International Cricket Council: Former Australia captain Ian Chappell believes the International Cricket Council (ICC) functions like an event management company which doesn’t run cricket. He added that a two-tier system for Test cricket should have been in place, but now the focus is on solving other pressing matters related to the longer format.
“The ICC is widely regarded as an event management company. They should add "and not a very good one". On the subject of a two-tier Test system, former West Indies pace-bowling champion Michael Holding noted: "For all its faults, at least FIFA actually runs soccer. The ICC must run cricket.
“Therein lies a perplexing problem. The ICC doesn't run cricket, and unless there's a major change of heart, the financially desirable nations will continue to have a huge say in producing a self-serving schedule,” wrote Chappell in his column for ESPNCricinfo on Sunday.
