"Shorten the turnaround time from a bowler being reported to the test results being announced (35 days reduced to 24 days); and enable the ICC to recognise suspensions from domestic competitions, as long as the bowler has been assessed by the Member using the ICC testing protocol at an ICC-accredited testing centre," said the statement.
The ICC also said Nepal would host the U-19 Cricket World Cup Qualifier 2015 provided the Cricket Association of Nepal's administrative capacity to stage the event without glitches.
