Much like the UN, the ICC brings representatives from all cricket-playing countries together to make administrative decisions about the future of cricket. Unlike the UN, however, not all countries have an equal input; the ICC decides which members are worthy of “Test” status (Full Members), and which are not (Associate Members). While the Council has experienced many successes, including hosting the prestigious World Cup and promoting cricket at a grassroots level, it also continues to receive its fair share of criticism, predominantly regarding the ICC’s perceived obstruction of the growth of the game within non- traditionally cricketing nations and prioritizing the commercialization of the sport over globalizing it.

A time when full contact sport no longer holds centre stage. It is a passage of time when the art of sport is appreciated over the physicality of competition. Today, latent skills and blossoming talent has a place amongst our youth and the generations to come. It is now the subtle brilliance of deftness, the art of touch, mastery of stroke and pure strategic guile that has turned cricket into the sport of the future. Today cricket is the stage for mental agility and peak physical condition. It is purity of both mind and spirit that produces champions. The re-invention of cricket globally has rejuvenated a desire to master the ultimate game. A sense of camaraderie pursued by both men and women alike. It’s now a passion for gamesmanship, integrity, honesty and fair play. It is a game that can be embraced and played or supported by everyone. We can’t undo the past, but we can shape the future. We do what we do today in cricket, for what will happen TOMORROW.

  • NIGÉRIA a Nigéria Não Era Favorita Ao Título Da Copa Africana De Nações
    QUEM ESTÁ NA COPA DAS CONFEDERAÇÕES 3 NIGÉRIA A Nigéria não era favorita ao título da Copa Africana de Nações. Apesar de ter alguns jogadores renomados no elenco, a diferença para Costa do Marf m e Gana passava a impressão de que a equipe seria uma mera coadjuvante na competição. Mas, quando a bola rolou, a situação se inverteu e o time f cou com a taça, de forma surpreendente. O feito garantiu uma vaga na Copa das Confederações no Brasil e a oportunidade de superar os favoritos mais uma vez. Arte sobre foto de Mike Hutchings/Reuters Assim como o Brasil, a Nigéria utilizará o torneio como uma boa preparação às Eliminatórias Africanas para o Mundial 2014 para não repetir o vexame de 2010, quando foi eliminado na primeira fase.
