Eight Associate Member candidates compete for election to ICC Chief Executives’ Committee

Eight Associate Members (AMs) are in contention for three available positions on the Chief Executives’ Committee (CEC) of the International Cricket Council (ICC). The election will take place on July 17, the opening day of the ICC Annual Conference, which is scheduled to be held in Singapore from July 17 to 20.

Anuraag Bhatnagar of Hong Kong, Tim Cutler of Vanuatu, Sarah Gomersall of Jersey, Gurdeep Klair of Canada, Palani Gurumurthy of France, Sankar Renganathan of Sierra Leone and Stella Vaea Tagitau of Samoa besides incumbent Sumod Damodar of Botswana are the candidates in fray.

Two other incumbents, Rashpal Bajwa of Canada and Umair Butt of Denmark, have decided not to partake in this election. Each elected member will serve a two-year term. A total of 45 Associate Members are eligible to vote, with each voter required to cast votes for three candidates as per their preference.

“The nominees contesting for the CEC are worthy opponents, in their own right, albeit two of the incumbents do not feature. As the only incumbent in the race and having served previously on CEC, I truly hope that my credentials and experience would merit the required support to achieve the desired successful outcome,” Damodar told as quoted by Cricbuzz.

“I have always maintained that representation at any level requires unequivocal neutrality and absolute commitment to serve without any bias. The diversity among Associate Members is also such an exciting environment, and the efforts to unite all corners of the globe are excellent challenges. I hope to continue my efforts to voice the concerns and needs of the AMs, if given an opportunity to do so,” Damodar concluded.
