    Zimbabwe, Samuels, Gavaskar's replacement top ICC agenda

    Dubai (PTI): The vexed Zimbabwe issue, fate of disgraced West Indian batsman Marlon Samuels and Sunil Gavaskar's replacement in the Cricket Committee will top the agenda at ICC's Annual General Meeting starting here on Sunday.

    The two-day Chief Executives Committee (CEC) meeting, starting Sunday, will decide on a range of issues relating to the game as well as recommendations by the ICC Board, which will meet over two days on July 2 and 3.

    The week will conclude with ICC's Annual Conference on July 4, followed by a Members' Forum.

    The ICC Board will be asked to select a replacement for former Cricket Committee Chairman Sunil Gavaskar, who relinquished the post in May after eight years at the helm.

    Gavaskar's scathing criticism of Match Referees did not go down well with the ICC and asked to chose between his media commitments and the Cricket Committee, the former India captain stepped down from the high-profile panel.

    Former Pakistan captain Majid Khan and ex-West Indies skipper Clive Lloyd are in the fray to succeed Gavaskar in the committee.

    According to an ICC release here on Friday, the worsening situation in Zimbabwe has prompted ICC President Ray Mali to place the issue on the agenda at the Board meeting. South Africa has already snapped cricketing ties with Zimbabwe while England followed suit later, which has put ICC under pressure to come up with a decision on the issue.
