WORLD CRICKET CONFERENCE
World Cricket Conference; often and simply known by its acronymic name (WCC) is the world governing body for the sport of cricket.
The WCC is responsible for the organization of cricket's major international tournaments, most notably the World Cup and the Nations League.
It also appoints the umpires and referees that officiate at all sanctioned international matches. It also promulgates the WCC Code of Conduct.
World Cricket Conference also co-ordinates action against corruption and match-fixing through its Anti-Corruption and Security Unit (ACSU).
The WCC is not involved in the arrangement of bilateral fixtures between member nations, which include all Test, ODI and T20I matches.
Neither does it govern domestic cricket within member countries. It does however, sanction all international games giving them official status.
It does not make or alter the laws of the sport, which have remained under the governance of the Marylebone Cricket Club since 1788.
