The ICC board will take a final decision on a new financial model and governance structure at the April meeting, the governing body said in a statement. "Today was an important step forward for the future of the ICC and cricket around the world," the ICC's Indian chairman Shashank Manohar said in a statement. "I want the ICC to be reasonable and fair in our approach to all 105 Members and the revised constitution and financial model does that," he added. The governing body is also considering test cricket status for Ireland and Afghanistan, provided they meet full membership criteria. The same committee also authorised the governing body to amend its anti-corruption code to permit the use of cell phone data extraction equipment.
