ICC's HQ to shift to Dubai? LONDON, Tuesday - After being based at Lord's for 95 years, the ICC is likely to shift its base to Dubai in April 2005. According to London's Daily Telegraph, the ICC's board voted on the matter after the UK government failed to grant the tax concessions that the ICC had requested. The move was passed by a 11-1 margin, with one abstention. The newspaper reported that all ten Test-playing countries voted for the change, while among the three associate members on the ICC board, Kenya voted in favour, Israel abstained, and Malaysia voted for a move to Kuala Lumpur, its own capital. The newspaper also reported that the vote took place three weeks ago. |
