Profiles of the Governing Council Members
Sunil Gavaskar, a cricket pioneer and the first batsman to reach 10,000 runs in Test matches, is renowned for his sharp cricket mind and dedication to the game’s integrity.

The IML is not only a tribute to the masters of the game but also a celebration for fans who continue to cherish their heroes,” Gavaskar said as quoted from IML.
One of the all-time great batters, Sir Viv Richards, was a key player for the West Indies side that dominated cricket in the 1970s and 1980s. Under his leadership, the West Indies won every Test series, and he was a player ahead of his time in the limited-overs format.
“The IML is an amazing platform that will give fans the unique thrill of seeing past masters of the game back in action,” Sir Vivian Richards said in reference to his appointment to the IML’s Governing Council. I can’t wait to lead this creative league to success as a member of the Governing Council.”
A former captain of South Africa and one of the greatest all-around players in history, Shaun Pollock will contribute his expertise and adaptability to the IML Governing Council.Â
“It’s fantastic to be part of the Governing Council alongside cricketing greats. The IML is a chance to enjoy the skills and class of the masters, who entertained so many fans over the years. They will also inspire a new generation. I will be playing my role to hopefully make the league an unforgettable experience for everyone,” Pollock said.
