Massive Upset In ICC Elections As Imran Khwaja Loses Board Seat; Palani, Usmani, Van Vuuren Elected (Ld)
Deputy Chairman Imran Khwaja: In a major shake-up in global cricket administration, long-serving International Cricket Council (ICC) Deputy Chairman Imran Khwaja suffered a shock defeat in the Associate Member Directors' elections held during the global body's Annual Conference here on Wednesday.
France's Gurumurthy Palani topped the polling charts with 35 votes, while UAE's Mubashir Usmani and Namibia's Dr. Rudie van Vuuren secured 26 votes each to claim the three available spots on the all-powerful 17-member ICC Board. Khwaja, a veteran cricket administrator from Singapore, finished a close fourth with 23 votes, while Malaysia's Mahinda Vallipuram managed to get only 19 votes.
The ICC confirmed the development in an official statement, noting that the three elected Directors will each serve a two-year term on the ICC Board. While Palani and Van Vuuren enter the apex board for the first time, Usmani successfully retained his position.
