International Cricket Council has called off its board and committee meetings in Doha due to tensions in West Asia disrupting travel. Key topics like broadcast rights, Future Tours Programme, and Los Angeles 2028 Olympics qualification are postponed, while Afghanistan-Sri Lanka series in the UAE faces indefinite delay.
New Delhi: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has reportedly called off its board and committee meetings in Doha due to the ongoing tensions in West Asia that have disrupted travel in the region.
The meetings were scheduled to take place from March 25 to 27, bringing together ICC Board Directors, Chief Executives, committee members and senior leadership as part of the organisation’s ongoing governance calendar, providing an important opportunity to deliberate over key matters pertaining to the present and future of the global game.
According to ESPNcricinfo, the ICC is still keeping the option open to hold in-person meetings in April, although that will depend on normal functioning of regional airspace to allow safe travel for board members.
The report said that that among the major topics expected to be discussed were the future of global broadcast rights after the current deal expires in 2027, early talks regarding the next Future Tours Programme (FTP), and the qualification process for cricket at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics.
