Mustafa Kamal, president
of the International Cricket Council (ICC), has resigned from his position with
a complaint of being denied at the trophy presentation ceremony after Sunday’s
World Cup final at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
As the head of the governing
body, it was his right to handover the trophy to the victorious Australian
side, but it was given
by ICC chairman Narayanaswami Srinivasan.
It is thought that Mustafa
Kamal had to pay the price for his protest against a controversial umpiring decision
given in the second quarter-finals match between Bangladesh
and India .
Kamal’s departure has been
confirmed by the governing body. According to them, he resigned on personal reason
and he had no complaints to make against anyone.
The vacant position of
president will be filled up after ICC’s board meeting in Dubai on April 15 and 16.
