Power-hungry India may shift ICC headquarters to Mumbai from Dubai | | Indian officials are plotting to seize more control of world cricket by relocating the headquarters of the International Cricket Council to Mumbai. That could be a possibility once Indian politician
Sharad Pawar takes over the ICC presidency in July 2010. The proposal to shift
the ICC from Dubai to Mumbai has already received stern opposition from former
England Cricket Board boss Lord MacLaurin, The Telegraph reports. MacLaurin believes
the repercussions from an ICC move to India would be serious and it could even
affect major scheduling decisions such as holding the Ashes every two years. The
ICC board has already received another proposal to transfer the ICC headquarters
back to its historical home at Lord's, but there are tax problems associated with
a switch back to the UK. |
