Former England Captain Clare Connor Takes Charge As MCC's First Female President

By IANS News October 01, 2021 • 22:00 PM View: 2104

Former England captain Clare Connor took charge as the president of the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) on Friday. She also becomes the first woman ever to hold the post in the 234-year-old history of the club.

Her nomination was announced by her predecessor, former Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara at the Annual General Meeting in 2020. Clare now takes over from Sangakkara after his term was extended to two years because of Covid-19 pandemic. Clare, who is currently the ECB's Managing Director of Women's Cricket, was made an Honorary Life Member of MCC in 2009.
