Manohar steps down as ICC chairman
India's Shashank Manohar stepped down as chairman of the International Cricket Council on Wednesday after four years in office.
The 62-year-old successfully spearheaded efforts to restructure the ICC while in office, curbing the dominance of Australia, India and England — cricket's three wealthiest nations.
He became the ICC's first independent chairman in 2016 and was elected unopposed for a second term two years later but said recently he was ready to step down.
“On behalf of the ICC
Board and staff and the whole cricket family, I would like to thank Shashank for his leadership and everything he has done for the sport,” the council's chief executive Manu Sawhney said.
