Shaun Pollock has become the newest member of the MCC's world cricket committee.

Here is a complete list of the World Cricket Committee Members:

As usual, the English make up the numbers followed by Indians. Surprisingly, the Australians have only a token representation.

In case you are wondering, what the committee was all about here is the clincher:

The aims of the committee are to debate all matters in the interests of cricket and cricketers, to consider at all times the balance of the contest between bat and ball and to assist MCC's custodianship of the Laws of the Game, to protect the spirit of cricket, to be sure that governing body decisions never put cash or country interests before the good of the game.

A good reason as any to meet and spend some time at Lord’s.
