Just a couple of weeks after being elected Vice President of the ICC, Alan Isaac is proving the best candidate for the job.
Keeping a low key profile, Isaac by all accounts has remained non-inflammatory and fair in decision-making as he goes about CCI business.
It’s a stance in keeping with the decorum expected of the position, and in tune with his experience as a cricket administrator and former captain of Wellington's second XI, and then NZC Chairman since 2008.
"I am looking forward to serving our great sport at international level and protecting the primacy of international cricket," Isaac commented after he got the unanimous nod from the ICC executive board and the full ICC council.
After all, that’s what the job’s about.
"I'd like to think I'm judged on what I achieve or what I don't achieve in two, three or four years' time," he said.
So we can only wait to witness the resilience of Test cricket in the face of the popularity juggernaut of the IPL, and observe the role the ICC plays in fostering international agreement in the best interests of the game.
