Cricket Canada suspended with immediate effect
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has suspended Cricket Canada with immediate effect, citing serious violations of its membership obligations. The decision was announced following the ICC Board meetings in Ahmedabad.
Meanwhile, the ICC has taken steps to ensure that players do not become collateral damage in the ongoing crisis as Canada's national teams will continue to participate in ICC-sanctioned tournaments and qualification events despite the governing body's suspension. Funding for national team programs will continue through a controlled mechanism supervised directly by ICC management.
"The ICC Board resolved to suspend Cricket Canada from ICC membership with immediate effect due to serious breaches of its membership obligations. The ICC Board was mindful of the importance of protecting the interests of Canadian players and ensuring they are not disadvantaged by the governance issues affecting the national governing body. Accordingly, Canadian national representative teams will continue to be eligible to participate in ICC events during the period of suspension,” the ICC’s press release read.
