TIL Desk Sports/ New Zealand Cricket (NZC) head Greg Barclay has been elected as the ICC’s new Independent Chairman after he comfortably defeated Singapore’s Imran Khwaja to succeed India’s Shashank Manohar.
The voting was carried out during ICC’s annual quarterly meeting on Tuesday. The electronic voting process involved 16 board of directors — 12 from full member (Test playing nations), three associate countries and one independent female director (Indra Nooyi of PepsiCo).
“It is an honour to be elected as the Chair of the ICC and I would like to thank my fellow ICC Directors for their support. I hope we can come together to lead the sport and emerge from the global pandemic in a strong position and poised for growth,” Barclay said.
