ICC Board meeting in Dubai on Monday to discuss the form, among other things, the ICC event in 2013, internal corruption, codes, and the results of the Independent Governance was commissioned in June.

Currently, the Champions Trophy is scheduled to be held in June 2013 in England, but it is possible that this event may be discarded in favor of the test sample. The government is trying to bring the decision on the matter. "Player and the public interest in cricket test match is all-time high," Haroon Lorgat, the ICC President and CEO, said before the meeting. "It would be appropriate to test stage of the Championship play-off first four teams."

In the last week, said Ronnie Flanagan, the president of the ICC against corruption and security unit, there was a fear that the domestic game could be affected by corruption, the increasing control of international matches. In November 2010, the Board ordered all members to implement a national anti-corruption code of 1 April 2011.

At the meeting, the Court will receive an update on the implementation of national strategies against corruption processes. "The International Criminal Court [Full] Members are well aware of the need to strengthen education and preventive measures in this critical area," said Lorgat. "We know we can not be complacent."

The Independent Review Panel of governance supported by PricewaterhouseCoopers and conducted by Harry Woolf, a former Chief Justice of England and Wales, which will present a status report at the meeting. This is an initiative of the ICC in the new Strategic Plan 2011-2015, adopted in April 2011 and includes an assessment of the ICC presidential candidate and the electoral process.

Lorgat is hoped that the review will help mold the governance framework of the ICC forward. "He has a clear ambition to be well managed and the main body that governs the world," he said. "I hope the review leads us to set up a governance model that is relevant for us a new world."
