Good News! Zimbabwe, Nepal Have Been Readmitted As ICC Members
Home > News Shots > Sports newsAfter months of being away, Zimbabwe and Nepal have been readmitted as ICC Members. This took place after the conclusion of ICC Board meetings in Dubai on Monday.
After the meeting with the ICC Chairman and Chief Executive, Zimbabwe Cricket was readmitted by the ICC Board.
Zimbabwe will now be able to take up their place in the ICC Men's U19 Cricket World Cup in January and the ICC Super League later in 2020.
Zimbabwe and Nepal were suspended in July this year after government interference in the running of the Board.
During the meeting, ICC Chairman Shashank Manohar said: "I would like to thank the Zimbabwe Sports Minister for her commitment to the reinstatement of Zimbabwe Cricket. Her desire to work in support of Zimbabwe Cricket was clear and she has unconditionally complied with the conditions set down by the ICC Board."
"Funding to Zimbabwe Cricket will continue to be on a controlled basis as part of a collective effort behind getting the game in Zimbabwe back on an even keel," Manohar added.
Further speaking on the transition plan in Nepal, ICC Chairman asserted that "Given the progress made in Nepal, a transition plan will now be developed for the Cricket Association of Nepal to support full compliance with Associate Membership criteria, which will also involve controlled funding."
