Patel handed top ICC job
Monday Mar 17 2008 03:24
South African Imtiaz Patel has been named as the new chief executive of the International Cricket Council.
The CEO of South African broadcast company Supersport will take over the reins when current incumbent, Malcolm Speed, steps down in June.
"There was an absolute consensus on his choice," said ICC president elect David Morgan.
"He was among the six candidates shortlisted for the job by the ICC executive board from a list of 15 chosen by our consultants.
"We still have to negotiate the terms and conditions of the contract with Mr Imtiaz.
"The initial contract will be for a term of three years."
