The International Cricket Council: The International Cricket Council (ICC) suspended the membership status of USA Cricket with immediate effect on Tuesday due to governance issues, following a thorough review of affairs and extensive engagement with key stakeholders over the past year.

USA Cricket was placed 'on notice' during the 2024 ICC Annual General Meeting for being non-compliant with ICC Membership criteria and given 12 months to put things in order. However, they failed to remedy the situation, and the ICC took the harsh decision to suspend their membership.

The decision, taken by the ICC Board during its meeting a few days back, was based on USA Cricket’s repeated and continued breaches of its obligations as an ICC Member under the ICC’s Constitution, the ICC said in a release on Tuesday night.
