The International Cricket Council (ICC) has suspended Cricket Canada with immediate effect following what it described as "serious breaches" of its membership obligations.
While Cricket Canada's membership has been suspended, the ICC said Canadian national teams would continue to participate in ICC events and access funding through a controlled mechanism overseen by the governing body to ensure players are not adversely affected by the administrative issues. The ICC added that Cricket Canada would be provided with a set of reinstatement conditions aimed at addressing governance and administrative shortcomings, with progress to be monitored by the ICC's Normalisation Committee.
