Alan Isaac, the ICC president, said that he had encouraged the Big Three - the BCCI, the ECB and Cricket Australia - to work together on finding a resolution for “commercial and governance issues facing the game”. He further stated that the strong criticism of the leaked draft proposal, which intended to give more power to the three boards was unwarranted. Isaac’s statements were part of a media release related to the ICC’s Board meeting on January 28 and 29 to discuss a “working group position paper” drafted by the ICC’s Finance & Commercial Affairs committee (F&CA), which suggested structural overhaul of world cricket, giving more power to the BCCI, ECB and CA. Some of the changes suggested in the “position paper” included a change in the ICC’s FTP and a greater share of the revenue to the three boards.
