In all, eight ICC Committees will meet across the four-day programme.
Running from Wednesday till November 15, the final set of meetings of 2026 will bring together ICC Board and Committee representatives from around the world.
“ICC World Test Championship match-ups will be proposed for the 2027-29 and 2029-31 cycles, while windows for all established ICC major men’s events for 2028-35 will be submitted for approval,” stated a press release from the world body.
Discussions will also include the first feedback from the Franchise League Review Group and Governance Review Committee, which were both established at the ICC Annual Conference in July this year.
“The Franchise League Review Group has set out to consider ways to enhance the current ICC sanctioning framework of regulations that further protect and strengthen the ecosystem to address new challenges arising from the increasing number of franchise leagues,” the ICC said.
The Governance Review Committee will report its initial recommendations after being tasked with undertaking a thorough review of the ICC’s governance.
