In light of the escalating military conflict in West Asia, the International Cricket Council's (ICC) scheduled board and committee meetings in Doha this March have been called off, according to ESPNCricinfo.
Critical finance committee discussions will be held virtually over the coming weeks, but the potential for in-person meetings in April remains, dependent on the reopening of airspace for safe travel.
Key issues slated for discussion include negotiations on broadcasting rights, the forthcoming Future Tours Programme, and the cricket qualification pathways for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. This disruption reflects the wider impact on international cricket, including the postponement of the Afghanistan-Sri Lanka series, initially set for the UAE.
