Ganguly will replace Anil Kumble, who stepped down after serving a maximum of three, three-year terms. “I am delighted to welcome Sourav to the position of Chair of the ICC Men’s Cricket Committee,” ICC chairman Greg Barclay said.

“His experience as one of the world’s best players and latterly as an administrator will help us shape our cricketing decisions moving forward.” Going forward, the ICC Women’s Committee will be known as the ICC Women’s Cricket Committee and will assume all decision-making responsibility for women’s cricket.

The Board also approved that first-class status and list-A classification would be applied to women’s cricket to align with the men’s game.
