Shashank Manohar said the International Cricket Council (ICC) plans to launch a global strategy for the sport. File photo: PTIDubai: Former BCCI president Shashank Manohar will expectedly serve a second term as the independent chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC) after he was elected unopposed by the governing body’s board. Manohar, who became the first independent ICC chairman in 2016, will continue for a second two-year term following his unopposed election. According to the election process, ICC directors were each allowed to nominate one candidate, who had to be either a present or a past ICC director. That Manohar will get a second term was clear during last month’s quarterly meet of ICC in Kolkata as there wasn’t any opposition to his candidature.
