Should the ECB be re-formed?

Scyld Berry has called for the reformation of the ECB. In a robust article in The Sunday Telegraph he attacks the candidates for the chairmanship - Mike Soper and Giles Clarke - and proposes two others who he believes would be far more suitable.

Once an organisation is incapable of organising itself, let alone governing others, the time has come for it to go. The England and Wales Cricket Board have been unable to elect a new chairman. They should be re-formed so they promote English cricket as a whole, not the interests of the 18 first-class counties.

Neither candidate who stood for election to the ECB chairmanship last week was elected. The vote split 9-9 - because neither candidate deserved to be elected. And the record of the two candidates tells you everything you need to know about the ECB.
