Manohar agrees to stay on as ICC chief
In a income pity indication too, in that a BCCI claimed a infancy of a share, a Indian house was out-voted 8-2.
“Yes, a votings are over. It was 8-2 in foster of revamped income indication and 9-1 in foster of inherent changes,” suggested a comparison BCCI functionary.
“The BCCI has voted opposite both as we had, in principle, confirmed that all these changes are totally unsuitable for us. At this point, we can usually contend that all options are open for us. We would have to go behind to a SGM and apprise a members of a situation.”
As a outcome of their twin voting defeats, a Indian house is approaching to see a share of a income collapse from a towering $570m to around $290m.
The pushing force behind this energy change is suspicion to be India’s really own Shashank Manohar, who is a former BCCI conduct himself but has depressed out of foster with his former employers since holding over as ICC’s first-ever eccentric chairman.

“Our aim was to strengthen India’s interest. Our tinge was intensely accommodating during a assembly for a best seductiveness of a game. But what was intolerable was Mr Manohar’s stance.”
Caught in a fix, a BCCI is suspicion to be weighing a options, that as per a officials, also includes withdrawing from a arriving ICC Champions Trophy.
