Skerritt joins Englands All-time leading run scorer Alistair Cook as new members after former West Indies fast bowler and current commentator Ian Bishop, and Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al-Hasan stood down from the committee.
With the likes of the young Cook and Al-Hasan being candidates, maybe Ian Bishop felt too old to be a part of the committee, hence his decline.

Perks of Presidency
BI loved him some perks. I think thats the most hurtful to him and what he misses most.
I suspect Ricky enjoys a good perk as well
Dave Cameron was a part of that committee when he was President. Nothing is new here.
