CRICKET: The International Cricket Council have refused to comment on reports from India that Darryl Hair has been removed from their Elite Umpires Panel. Earlier this week, the ICC confirmed they received a letter from the Pakistan Cricket Board urging them to hold an inquiry into Hair's conduct during this year's Oval Test against England.

The ICC planned to discuss the aborted Test at their board meeting. But the meeting continues today in Mumbai and the spokesman said nothing will be discussed until it has reached its conclusion.

This meeting is the ICC's first opportunity to discuss the matter following the cancellation last month of a emergency meeting to do so in the aftermath of the Test, which was awarded to England.
