The increased popularity and television coverage for various domestic competitions around the world requires much more than just the ICC to be vigilant and we acknowledge the ECB\u2019s efforts in this respect.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dubai: Haroon Lorgat, the ICC Chief Executive, made the following statement after the announcement of the decision of the England and Wales Cricket Board\u2019s (ECB) Disciplinary Panel in relation to the cases brought against Mervyn Westfield and Danish Kaneria.
