Zimbabwe Cricket suspended by ICC with immediate effect
The introduction of concussion replacements and a change to over-rate punishments were two of the major decisions made at the ICC Annual Conference in London, where the headline was the decision to suspend Zimbabwe Cricket with immediate effect.
The ICC Board unanimously decided that the Full Member had failed to fulfil their obligation to provide a process for free and democratic elections and to ensure that there is no government interference in its administration for cricket.
ICC funding will be suspended, and representative teams from the country will be barred from participating at ICC events, putting their participation in October’s Men’s T20 World Cup Qualifier in jeopardy.
“We do not take the decision to suspend a Member lightly, but we must keep our sport free from political interference,” said ICC chairman Shashank Manohar. “What has happened in Zimbabwe is a serious breach of the ICC Constitution and we cannot allow it to continue unchecked. The ICC wants cricket to continue in Zimbabwe in accordance with the ICC Constitution.”
Concussion replacements will also be introduced following successful trials in domestic cricket. The player will need to be a like-for-like substitute, and any such switch will need to be approved by the Match Referee. The change will come into effect from 1 August, meaning the first game for which they will be in play will be the first men's Ashes Test at Edgbaston.
Also significant is an alteration to punishments for maintaining a slow over-rate. Captains will no longer face suspension, but players face point deductions in the ICC Test Championship for breaches.

Possibly one of the saddest news Imrul kayes heard yesterday.
On a more serious note, the ICC is a joke run by a bunch of loonies.If they used the same "government interference" criteria they used for suspending Zimbabwe, then BCB should have been the first board to have suffered this fate.

You don't know what "Government interference" is meaning here, do you?

So sad for Zim. Our true friend. When no one wanted to play us, or host us, they were always approachable. Huge loss for cricket really

Have been around for a while, still couldn't figure out what KDPP stands for.
But the constant usage tells me it has something to do with knee Jerk reaction.
Am I right?
We feel left out you know ╮(╯_╰)╭

We should invite other top teams to take the space of Zim for the T20I tri-series or even can make it a quadrangular by getting multiple teams beside Afghan
