The United States Cricket Hall of Fame recently wrote to Manohar, indicating that they would like to recommend Cameron to the top post of the International Cricket Council. "I believe we need to find a sustainable financial model where teams can earn through merit," Cameron, who served as CWI president from 2013 to 2019, was quoted as saying by 'Jamaica Gleaner'. "The big three India, Australia and England have all the events, the audience and the biggest economy, but the smaller nations have to always be coming back to the ICC for financial support, so what we want to happen is not equal share of revenues, but equitable share," said Cameron. ICC Board meeting: Process may start to find a successor for Shashank Manohar The former CWI president will need two nominations to stay in the fray and it is not clear if he will receive the support from CWI chief Ricky Skerritt, who had replaced him at the helm, and had a public spat with him. Manohar will relinquish the post when his term ends this year, paving the way for the new chairman to formally take over the position. The ICC's Annual General Meeting is scheduled at the end of July. England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) chief Colin Grave is currently the front-runner for the top post and BCCI president Sourav Ganguly's name have also been doing the rounds. Cameron said if he gets to become the ICC chairman, he will like to take the sport to USA. "The overall cricket structure needs change and needs to be looked at from different lenses. There is tremendous opportunity in the Americas which has huge economies that are untapped, and we need to look at the cricket world from a different set of eyes," said Cameron. "We are still trying to fit Test cricket, T20, ODIs and world events into the same 12 months with more teams, and I think there is a way to look at that to create more money with fewer events and to allow more players to participate in the global game."

The matches will be held in a bio-secure environment with no spectators. "I think the games will feel a bit different with no crowds. International cricket certainly will be more of a mental test to make sure each player is right up for the battle, and I'm very aware of that. "I've already spoken to our sports psychologist about creating a bit of a mindset around making sure I can get my emotions up to where they need to be for me to be at my best," Broad said in a video conference. The seasoned fast bower added, "If you put me in an Ashes game or a pre-season friendly, I know which one I'll perform better in. So I've got to make sure my emotions are where they need to be for an international Test match, and that's something I started working on in early June." Ben Stokes is set to captain England for the first time in the opening Test of the three-match series and Broad feels the all-rounder would have no difficulty stepping in for Joe Root. According to Broad, Stokes has a "good cricketing brain" and that should help him when he stands in for Root, who is certain to miss the first Test, beginning here from July 8, to be with his wife for the birth of their second child. "I've no doubt he will be brilliant at captaining England for this one-off Test match -- or two Test matches," Broad said. "Stokesy just has a really good cricket brain. He's someone who's matured incredibly over the last three or four years. There won't be much pressure as he's not being judged over a long period of time. I have no doubts he will be brilliant." The 34-year-old, who has so far taken 485 wickets in 138 Tests, doesn't like it when there is no pressure, something cricket will have to bear with for now in the absence of spectators. "It''s a worry for me because I know that I perform at my best as a player under pressure, when the game is at its most exciting and when the game needs changing. "And I know that there are certain scenarios that bring the worst out of me as a cricketer, and that is when I feel the game is just floating along and there is nothing (riding) on the game." Broad said he will have to find "little things that give competitive edge". "It might involve doing even more research into the opposition batsmen's strengths and weaknesses, so I'm focused on getting into a competitive battle with the batsman instead of relying on the crowd. "We have to make sure we're as engaged as possible," he said. Broad joked that he might get into a verbal duel with his opponents to charge himself up at the risk of inviting punishment from his father Chris, who is likely to be the match referee in the series. "Maybe I have to pick more of a battle with the opposition and bring my dad into things a bit more," said Broad. Get breaking news alerts.

The ICC-approved logo, designed by Alisha Hosannah, will be the one which featured in the shirts of all 20 Premier League football clubs since the sport's resumption earlier this month. "This is a pivotal moment in history for sports, for the game of cricket and for the West Indies cricket team," Holder was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo. "We have come to England to retain the Wisden Trophy but we are very conscious of happenings around the world and the fight for justice and equality. "As a group of young men, we know of the rich and diverse history of West Indies cricket and we know we are guardians of the great game for generation to come." Holder, who wants racism to be treated at par with doping and corruption, said they arrived at the decision to wear the logo after much thought. "We did not take our decision lightly. We know what it is for people to make judgments because of the colour of our skin, so we know what it feels like, this goes beyond the boundary. There must be equality and there must be unity. Until we get that as people, we cannot stop," he said. "We have to find some way to have equal rights and people must not be viewed differently because of the colour of their skin or ethnic background." The West Indies players are likely to wear the shirts for the first time in this week's four-day warm-up match at Emirates Old Trafford, starting on Monday. The opening Test of the series, which will mark the resumption of international cricket after the coronavirus-forced hiatus, will get underway at the Agaes Bowl in Southampton on July 8.

Victoria's COVID-19 numbers have increased in the past few days, as the situation threatens to send parts of Melbourne into lockdown. "Could it move? Obviously, because if you look at what is happening across Australia by Christmas time, the MCG may only be able to host 10,000 or 20,000 people, which will not look great for an iconic Test like (between) Australia and India," Taylor told 'Channel 9'. "You move that to Optus stadium in Perth or even Adelaide Oval, you will get full venues. Adelaide in particular loves seeing the Indians play. The India-Pakistan game in the World Cup sold out in 52 minutes or something," he added. India vs Australia: Paine fears Boxing Day Test could be shifted out of MCG Last month, Western Australia Cricket Association (WACA) chief Christina Matthews had lashed out at Cricket Australia for choosing Brisbane over Perth as one of the venues for the high-profile Test series against India later this year. Taylor believes WACA will look to seize the opportunity to host Virat Kohli and his men. "Those venues, especially Perth, will be trying hard to get that game as it would look better with full crowds." The Optus stadium can seat 60,000 supporters and is regarded as the best venue in Australia outside the MCG. Earlier this week, Australia's Test skipper Tim Paine had also expressed fears that the Boxing Day Test could indeed be shifted from Melbourne. Get breaking news alerts.

He has also played under all three for India. The left-handed batsman has closely observed the captaincy styles of all three and while interacting with former India opener Aakash Chopra on his YouTube channel explained what sets them apart. While talking about Kohli's captaincy skills Parthiv said, "Virat has a different style of captaincy, he likes to be right in front every time, he likes to lead from the front and be aggressive all the time. It is his style and it has suited him." While talking about Dhoni and Rohit's leadership skills the Gujarat stumper said, "Dhoni and Rohit keep the dressing room calm while Virat makes sure that everyone is on their toes and they all keep pushing themselves." Parthiv played in CSK between 2008 and 2010 seasons. He was also part of Rohit-led MI between 2015 and 2017 before Royal Challengers Bangalore bought his services during IPL 2018 Auction. On Dhoni, the southpaw said: "I think MS Dhoni knows completely about every player's potential and what all can be extracted out from him. Dhoni knows what is the potential of a player, and he brings that out. He lets them play in their own style, and gives them space to express themselves." Talking about Rohit Sharma, who is the most successful captain in the history of IPL, Parthiv said: "Rohit plans really well. He figures out how to use the information that has been given to him, and which player can be used in what role. "He has improved a lot over the years, starting from 2014 to now, if you look at him. At man-management, Dhoni and Rohit are really good at," Parthiv added further. Get breaking news alerts.

Fast bowler Musa Khan and wicketkeeper Rohail Nazir have joined those 18 in making the trip. Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Hasnain, Mohammad Hafeez, Mohammad Rizwan, Shadab Khan and Wahab Riaz were among those to test positive for COVID-19 and those who have been infected must return two negative tests before they can travel to England. Pakistan are set to face an England side who have struggled to replace Alastair Cook since his retirement from international duty in 2018. Excluding nightwatchman Jack Leach, England have used five different opening pairings and found consistency hard to come by. Pakistan to leave for UK on Sunday, 6 out of 10 infected players test negative The obdurate Rory Burns displayed promise in the Ashes, while Dom Sibley, Zak Crawley and Joe Denly will be in contention to open alongside him when England face West Indies in a three-match series starting on July 8, prior to the Pakistan games. "Their bowling attack is brilliant in their own conditions and there is no doubt about it," Azhar said prior to Pakistan's departure for England. "Other than Jofra Archer we have faced all of them - [Stuart] Broad, [James] Anderson, [Chris] Woakes, [Ben] Stokes and even [Mark] Wood was there, but we have still won against them. "Looking at their batting, their top order has been fragile for some time since Alastair Cook retired. "They have tried a lot of combinations lately and might be looking a bit more settled, but they haven't been really confident with it. So there is something for us in it to look at." Fast bowlers Naseem Shah and Shaheen Shah Afridi might be lacking in experience of English conditions, but Azhar has confidence in their ability to overcome a lack of practice on the surfaces they will encounter. "In terms of number of games, of course England have tons of experience in their bowling," Azhar added. "But we have the skills: they [our bowlers] are young and have a lot to offer. They can give trouble to any team in the world. In a very short time, they have achieved a lot and that is a good sign. "You can't buy experience immediately, and for that you obviously have to play more, but then we have a very experienced coaching staff with Waqar Younis and Mushtaq Ahmed. "Their expertise and knowledge can be utilised and they will be helping them. So I believe, when this combo of experience and skill is brought together, that we can produce a great result. I am confident about this." Get breaking news alerts.

Such a big step took by the actor, who played onscreen MS Dhoni in the biopic made on the former India captain, also stunned the Indian cricket fraternity. Speaking about Sushant's death on his YouTube channel, Akhtar said: "I met him in Olive in Mumbai when I was about to leave India in 2016. To be honest, he did not look very confident to me. He went past me with his head down when my friend told me he is doing MS Dhoni's film." "I thought I will have to watch his acting now. He has come from a humble background and he is making a good film. The film did turn out to be successful but I regret not stopping him there and having a word with him about life. I could have shared experiences of my life with him, maybe I could have talked to him like the way I do which could have given him a broad spectrum in life. But I regret not talking to him," the speedster added. The Rawalpindi Express didn't just stop there, he also spoke about the allegations being levelled against Bollywood star Salman Khan and other celebrities, and claimed it was unfair to scrutinise anyone without proof. The former Pakistan pacer-turned-commentator said ending their life should never be an option for anyone. He advised those who are battling depression should try and talk to someone. "Ending your life should never be an option. Setbacks are an asset in life but when you know you have problems you should discuss it. Deepika Padukone reached out after her break up that she was suffering from anxiety and needed help. I think Sushant also needed help," said Akhtar. Mumbai Police is investigating Sushant's death as there was no suicide note found in the actor's home. The cops are trying to ascertain every possible angle. Get breaking news alerts.

"If we've got issues within our sport, we must deal with them equally." According to ICC rules, a player can be banned for life for on-pitch racist abuse if he breaches the anti-racism code three times. A first offence results in four to eight suspension points. Two suspension points equate to a ban for one Test or two one-day internationals or two T20 international matches. Holder, who is set to lead his side against hosts England in the three-Test series beginning on July 8, said anti-racism feature can be introduced where players will be briefed about the issue ahead of each series. "In addition to having anti-doping briefings and anti-corruption briefings, maybe we should have an anti-racism feature before we start a series," he said. "My message is more education needs to go around it. I've not experience any racial abuse first hand but have heard or seen a few things around it. It's something you just can't stand for." In international cricket, there have been instances where players have been penalised for racism. Last year, Sarfaraz Ahmed, who was the captain of the Pakistan team then, was banned for four matches after he made a racist remark at South Africa all-rounder Andile Phehlukwayo. The death of African-American George Floyd at the hands of a white police officer in the United States has triggered global outrage against racism in society. Many cricketers, including former West Indies captains Darren Sammy and Chris Gayle, have opened up about racist incidents that happened in their lives and also supported the Black Lives Matters campaign. Holder had earlier said that the West Indies team is firmly behind the 'Black Lives Matter' movement. "As a team, we will show our solidarity to the movement. We had few discussions and come July 8th, we will show our support," he had said. Get breaking news alerts.

"I have been reading/ hearing a lot about the changes being suggested to help grow women's cricket/ make it a more attractive product. I personally feel most of the suggestions to be superfluous," 31-year-old Pandey, a serving officer of the Indian Air Force, wrote. Pandey, who has 113 wickets from 104 international appearances, drew the analogy of 100m sprints while describing what a lightweight ball and 20-yard pitch would mean for women's cricket. "An Olympic 100m female sprinter doesn't run 80m to win First place medal and clock the same timing as her male counterpart. "So the whole 'decreasing the length of the pitch' for whatever reasons seems dubious. Also, it almost definitely takes the doubleheaders out of question," she wrote. While she is game for reduction of the size of the cricket ball in women's game but she is completely against reducing the weight simply because of the perception that they can't hit the ball long. "Please don't bring the boundaries in! We have surprised you with our power-hitting in recent times, so remember, this is only the beginning; we will get better. Please have patience. We are skilled players, who are evolving," wrote Shikha. What she finds objectionable is trying to achieve growth through the tinkering of rules rather than robust marketing. "Growth can also be achieved by marketing the sport well. We don't have to tinker with rules or the very fabric of the game to attract an audience. "Why not have DRS, Snicko, Hotspot, all of the technical acumen and live broadcast for every game that we play anywhere in the world," she questioned, asking for more investment at the grassroots. Last but not the least, she made a defining point stating that women's cricket shouldn't be compared to the men's game as both are completely different in its essence. "Please, don't compare women's sport, women's cricket, in this case, with men's sport. "We need to see it as a different sport altogether ... A sport that 86,174 spectators turned up to watch on March 8, 2020, and several million watched live on their television sets," Pandey said, referring to their T20 World Cup final against Australia at the MCG. "They saw something special in us, and here's hoping you do too," she concluded with a hashtag "champions in our own rights". Get breaking news alerts.

Will cricket in the COVID-19 times be devoid of fun and entertainment with fans being kept away? "Entertainment in any sport is determined by the standard of play in that sport and not by what is happening in the stands," Holding, one of the most respected voices in world cricket, told PTI in an exclusive interaction. Holding, who spends most of his time in the UK, gave an example of how the quality of EPL's games didn't take a hit despite matches being played in front of empty stands. "Crowds are very important to add the atmosphere but like football, that has restarted in the UK, the entertainment has been the standard of football played," Holding said. While the whole world is debating on the ban on saliva to shine the ball, one of the greatest of all time believes that it won't be that big a problem. "As I have said before, I don't see the ban on using saliva being a problem. Perspiration does the same thing unless the polisher has something other than just saliva in his mouth," Holding said, possibly referring to the sugary candies or mint that fielders use to make the saliva heavy. Asked if the economic implications of COVID-19 will hurt Test cricket in coming days as boards might be inclined to play more white-ball bilaterals, he answered in negative. "I don't see how that should affect the type of cricket played," Holding said. He believes that since TV broadcast money is the main source of income, number of live match days will sort the issue. "I would think the most money going into the coffers of cricket boards will be from TV contracts. That being the case, it should be a matter of supplying the number of days of cricket that the contract says," he said. Despite being among the top three commentators in world cricket, Holding has never been a part of the IPL bandwagon all these years. The reason being his reservations with the shortest format of the game. "You haven't seen me in the IPL and you haven't seen me (commentating) on any T20 game because I don't do that form of the game," said Holding, who is not known to mince words. Holding last did commentary in India back in 2014 in a truncated series between India and the West Indies where the Caribbean players pulled out due to a pay dispute with their cricket board. Asked why he has not been seen in the BCCI's panel of foreign commentators, Holding said that he primarily works in England and South Africa. "As for doing cricket that India is involved in, I am sure you've seen me on India-England series and India versus South Africa series. "I work in England and SA so if they are in those countries I work on those series. I worked on the India-West Indies series that was abandoned in 2014," said Holding, who played 60 Tests and 102 ODIs for the West Indies. The next year will be the last that the 66-year-old will be seen as an active commentator. So what are the post retirement plans? "My post retirement will consist of as little as possible. That's what retirement means I think," the 'Whispering Death' concluded. Get breaking news alerts.
