The BCCI's working committee has rejected the key recommendations of the
Woolf report concerning the restructuring of the ICC, the Indian board
president N Srinivasan has said.
"The working committee discussed all the main recommendations of the
report submitted to the ICC by a committee headed by Lord Woolf. The
working committee was of the opinion that these recommendations were not
acceptable and rejected it," Srinivasan said after the meeting in
Chennai. "The working committee was in particular not agreeable to the
changes in the structure of the management of ICC that had been
proposed."
Srinivasan, however, did not specify which of the several recommendations of the Woolf report the BCCI was opposed to.
The ICC's independent governance review, headed by Lord Woolf, had
called for sweeping changes in the administration of cricket and the
functioning of its governing body. It recommended a restructuring of the
ICC's executive board to make it more independent and less dominated by
the bigger countries and also a re-examination of the rights and
benefits of the Test-playing Full Member nations, calling for measures
to increase transparency in dealings by the ICC and its members.
