Haroon Lorgat - Australia's dominance on the decline.

We, meaning quiet a few of us in the blogoshere, have been crying ourselves hoarse that the days of Australia's dominance are over. Now hear it from the horse's mouth.

 

THE future of international cricket will include a revised international schedule, a stronger Zimbabwe team, improved technology for umpires and a decline in Australia's on-field dominance, according to incoming International Cricket Council chief executive Haroon Lorgat.

 

It is also interesting to note that in his former role as chief selector with South Africa, Lorgat once infamously described the Australian team as "very ordinary".

 

Seriously, I think he has all the makings of another Niranjan Shah.

Niranjan Shah has to be the best... nobody can come close to his antics... not even the South African admins
