Both Naidoo and Hasnain will be in office till the ICC's annual meetings to be held at Dubai from June 29 to July 4 when the new guard takes over under Haroon Lorgat, the incoming CEO.
Speed was put on paid leave until the end of his contract on July 4. In a brief statement, David Morgan, the ICC's president-elect, said: "This ... is the result of a fundamental breakdown in the relationship between the CEO and a number of board members, including the president, over a variety of issues that include Zimbabwe."
