Gavaskar set to step down as ICC panel chairman

Sunil Gavaskar is all set to step down as ICC’s cricket committee chairman after the governing body asked the former Indian captain to give up his other job of a commentator and columnist, which is in “direct conflict” with his duties in the ICC. The issue was raised in the ICC’s executive committee meeting in Dubai last week where members felt Gavaskar’s dual roles were in conflict with each other and he should choose between the two. However, the committee decided against removing Gavaskar as it felt it would be better to give him the option of deciding what he wants to do. The former batsman will meet ICC CEO Malcolm Speed this week to take a final call on the issue. “Gavaskar will meet CEO Malcolm Speed in Dubai this week to discuss this matter”. source: google news http://www.commonwealthtv.tv http://blogs.mindbodynsoul.com Tags:blogs; gavaskar chairman circket COMMON WEALTH Dubai icc
