MacLaurin calls for an ICC review!

Lord MacLaurin, the former chairman of the England and Wales Cricket Board, has called for a major review of the ICC in the wake of the murder of Bob Woolmer last Sunday.

"When you have a terrible situation like we are now facing, one's got to look at the whole of the operation: the directorship; the way it's run; the calibre of people that are doing it," he said. "We've got to have the very best people running world cricket, otherwise we will continue to have problems."

Although police do not, as yet, have any proof that corruption and match-fixing are the heartbeat of the whole investigation, the smoke signals are there. Rumours abound that Woolmer's forthcoming book was to reveal the true extent of the game's rotten core and have invited reactions from across cricket's community, with Michael Vaughan, the England captain, conceding corruption is, in his "gut instinct," still part of the game.

INZIEGATE SUPPORTS THIS VIEW.....
