Sport Resolutions publishes its annual assurance report on Cricket Regulator’s use of investigatory and disciplinary powers

Sport Resolutions has independently conducted its annual review and published a report on the Cricket Regulator’s use of investigatory and disciplinary powers. The review, carried out by Jonathan Rennie, an independent investigator appointed by Sport Resolutions, aimed to assess whether the Cricket Regulator has operated independently from the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).

The review forms part of an annual independent assurance process to confirm that the Cricket Regulator operates free from interference or inappropriate involvement by ECB personnel. It assesses whether decisions relating to investigations, charging, and disciplinary proceedings are made independently, and whether appropriate structures are in place to support collaboration while safeguarding decision-making. The process also considers prevention and protection, as well as audit and compliance, to maintain integrity across the game.

The Cricket Regulator was established in December 2023 to ensure compliance with cricket regulations, enforce those regulations, and provide relevant education to the sport's community.

The first annual insurance report was published last year covering 2024. The report outlining the independent assurance process during 2025 can be found here as well as on the right-hand side of this page.
