Pakistan and other seven cricket playing countries should never accept and agree to the supremacy of Australia, England and India over finances and allow them to be veto authority. Agreeing to this proposal means putting your self in the same hope less position as the non veto countries in the UNO. Those countries who agree with the proposal be isolated and rest of the cricket playing countries should form their own cricket control board. Three arrogant will not be able to survive with the rest. Cricket is a game for pleasure and entertainment, no country be allowed to play politics and destroy it. Majid

What's the big deal. All Pakistani institutions always deny everything in public. Looks like denail has become our birth right!!

These cricket boards have no back-bone. Its not the integrity by dollars dictating the outcome. Dollars will win. this won't last. Its short-sighted on the part of the big-three. Give it 5 years and see rebels emerging to change the system again.

If that is true then its a good news.

@Majid Khan: Mr. Majid 7 countries already agreed. Only PAK, SRI and CSA are yet to agree so they can form their league if they can.

@Majid Khan: the amount of down vote clearly suggest how many trolls across the border visits Dawn.com

It is high time, ICC should be disbanded and let each nation go its own way. England and Aus will keep playing each other as cricket is their National game! NZ, WI, SA public seem to be more interested in other popular sports in respective country. BCCI would be better without freeloaders leaching on cricket revenue generated by Indian public! Worse part, such freeloaders full members are in majority in ICC; these boards line their own pockets with BCCI money and do NOTHING to bring crowd to stadium. India (and BCCI) should extend IPL for 3 months and 50-50 franchises based league tournament in winter for another 3-4 months. Test cricket is dying anyway, sooner than later. BCCI would do great if it ceases the opportunity and make IPL and 50-50 domestic league part of Indian contemporary culture as NFL & MLB are to USA. More celebrities, more inning break shows by popular singers and dancers, better stadium facilities for Indian middle class families to have a decent outing.

Being an ardent and zealous fan of cricket like billion people in India, SL, BD and Pakistan... now is the time, it seems, cricket will sooner be a rare commodity to see ... the real cricket will die and with that may be millions of fans will switch their interest to more political free games... Aus and Eng are habitual in make people their slaves and India was British colony how can India rule the cricket world without being biased ?. India will slowly sweep away Eng out of equation of so called big three ... and later they will spin out Aus as well. no other board ( except the b3 ) will benefit on monetary and cricketing fronts... A day light robbery is happening in the corridors of ICC and all board members are silently becoming part of it without apt knowledge that India will give them nothing in the end... once resolution is passed and made part of ICC constitution then matter may drag infinitely to restore it. PAK, SAF, SL must not budge to this hijacking of ICC. trust me, India will make life miserable for 9 other countries and will become pain for everyone... these guys simply have no vision or right minded people to run this ICC. India is single-eyed rape rich country which is madly driven by personalities not system.

PCB must not budge from its principled stand even if SA or some others get bought. International cricket cannot become the property of just three nations just because they have the money.

Will my Pakistani friend have the same opinion it Pakistan was in top 3 instead of India? I guess no! How come you guys support UN which is also based on the same principle where 7 rich nations lead the world and can veto anything?
