Since taking over from Lord Paul Condon in 2010, Flanagan has been in the position.
Sir Ronnie Flanagan, who has served as the ICC anti-corruption system (ACU) separate head since 2010, has decided to retire end of October. The announcement comes as ACU mind Alex Marshall prepares to leave in November.
A highly respected older officer, Flanagan was the Home Office key inspector of police for England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and was originally the chief officer of the officers company of Northern Ireland. He had replaced Lord Paul Condon, who had stepped down in 2010 having served for 10 times as ACU's annual mind.
After being appointed by the ICC in 2000, Condon was the one who had the original plan to establish the ACU. His main responsibilities included setting up scaffolding and removing the growing cases of match-fixing, which led to the three global captains Mohammad Azharuddin, Saleem Malik, and the late Hansie Cronje receiving life bans.
As he was nearing his return, Condon had warned that T20 cricket, particularly private company cricket, "represented the biggest obstacle to the dignity of cricket". The IPL bribery scandal exploded right away in 2013. Flanagan addressed the ICC annual conference in June by urging the minds of all the cricket boards to pass stronger anti-corruption regulations to prosecute players, match officials, and franchise owners who have been found guilty of dishonest T20 leagues to prevent a repeat.
On Monday the ICC said in a launch they're aiming to put forward their "recommendation" for the next ACU armchair by the weekly round of sessions in October.
