Former Black Caps pace bowler Geoff Allott has been appointed chief executive of New Zealand Cricket, replacing Scott Weenink.
Allott, who represented New Zealand in 10 tests and 31 ODIs between 1996 and 2000, brings nearly two decades of high-level cricket governance experience to the role, as well as business experience, particularly in terms of India and South Asia.
He was a founding board member of the New Zealand Cricket Players Association in 2002, was NZC general manager of cricket from 2008 to 2010, and spent eight years on the board. — Allied Media
