message: :Also, in moving its location from Lord's to Dubai the ICC is making a clear statement of independence from the past.
Would it be terribly cynical of me to suggest it might actually be more a clear statement of where the financial power lies in world cricket these days...? Loganberry (Talk) 19:17, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

text: Not correct.  Because it is an 'ordinary resolution' (i.e. can only be presented at an AGM), it only requires a simple majority (Rule 22.5).  DieSwartzPunkt (talk) 18:16, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

message: The terms `public' and `private' schools means the same in England. Should this be modified to `state' and `private' to avoid confusion?

message: The article only addresses the MCC's role in cricket and completely fails to mention its role in other sporting activities, both past and present.
The MCC historically (in spite of the name) was dedicated to both tennis and croquet as well as cricket.  In 1868 (after 91 years) the lawn tennis and croquet interests were passed to the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club founded the same year.   The MCC retained its interest in tennis (known these days as real tennis), and indeed the Lord's ground houses one of the few real tennis courts in Britain.  The MCC frequently hosts official world championship challenge matches (which, at present, only consists of one 13 set game every two years).
This is a role that the MCC itself seems to underplay as it isn't mentioned on their official website (www.lords.org) which concetrates on the cricket.  86.176.156.193 (talk) 09:25, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

message: "It was pleased to see many of its global functions transferred to the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 1993 and its English governance passed to the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) at the same time"
Am I right in believing that in 1993 the English governance would have passed to the TCCB? --Longwayround (talk) 09:16, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Well spotted.  You're quite right as the ECB was founded on 1 Jan 1997.  ----Jack | talk page 13:44, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
