Don’t join the ICL, NZC tells Fleming

New Zealand Cricket (NZC) has advised Test captain Stephen Fleming not to join the breakaway Indian Cricket League (ICL) and look for better ways instead of drawing the curtains on his illustrious career.

Fleming has been offered to captain a side in the rebel ICL and the long-serving Kiwi skipper is reportedly mulling retirement from international cricket to join the cash-rich league in India.

NZC chief executive Justin Vaughan, who spoke to Fleming, was quoted by The Dominion Post as saying “I just said to him that this is not in the best interest of New Zealand Cricket,”

Apart from Fleming, the Kiwi trio of Chris Harris, Nathan Astle and Chris Cairns are on the ICL radar, while pace spearhead Shane Bond’s name also did the rounds initially
