After the resignation of the officials after the T20 World Cup 2024, a round of speculation has already begun.
A week before the high-level meeting of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in Colombo, two senior officials of the apex cricket board have resigned. After this resignation of the officials, a round of speculation has started in the cricket world.
Let us tell you that both these officials were closely involved in the organization of the recently concluded ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. Among these two officials, ICC’s Head of Event Chris Tetley and General Manager of Marketing and Communications Claire Furlong have decided to leave the biggest cricket organization.
Issues related to the conduct of the T20 World Cup will be discussed in the meeting of the organization to be held in Colombo. On the other hand, if India Today’s reports regarding the resignation of both the officials are to be believed, some ICC sources have said that this resignation is several months old.
The source said that both the officials wanted to leave the organization after the completion of their tenure, but their tenure was extended till the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 held in USA-West Indies. Apart from this, both the officials are likely to attend the annual meeting to be held in Colombo, which is going to be held between 19 and 22 July.
The pitch of Nassau County Stadium in New York is on the radar of the meeting
Let us tell you that the T20 World Cup was played under the hosting of USA and West Indies. This was the first time when ICC had invested in USA, especially in New York, but the pitch of Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York for the T20 World Cup was quite disappointing.
It was not found to be up to the set standards, and fans got to see some low scoring matches. Let us tell you that the expansion of cricket in New York was a major project of the ICC, in which Chris Tetley and Clare Furlong were closely associated.
