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.

Pakistan`s long-term debt rating downgraded • Fitch Ratings, one of the three major global rating agencies, on December 14, 2018 downgraded Pakistan`s long-term debt rating to `B-Negative` owing to high debt repayment obligations, low foreign exchange reserves and fragile fiscal situation. The outlook, however, remains stable. • The New York-based agency said the downgrading of the rating from `B` to `B-` reflected heightened external financing risk from low reserves and elevated external debt repayments, as well as continued deterioration in the fiscal position, with a rising debt-to- GDP ratio. It said that a successful conclusion of the ongoing negotiations on IMF support could help stabilise external mances, but the programme would then face significant implementation risk. • Pakistan`s liquid reserves have continued to fall, reaching $7.3 billion as of Dec 6equivalent to 1.5 months of imports despite significant stabilisation efforts by the State Bank of Pakistan and the new government. 2. Second $1bn Saudi deposit arrives in SBP account • The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has received second tranche of $1 billion from Saudi Arabia, which will support the country`s dwindling foreign exchange reserves.
