Pompous smarmy public school nob. Perfect for the role
I blame Stephen Fry for nominating him

I find bilateral series in ODI and T20 rather dull tbh.
But the reasoning behind this is just to line people's pockets no doubt including his. So he can fuck off

So, he’s suggesting that players shouldn’t play ODI cricket for 4 years. 
I always get him and Mark Durden-Smith mixed up

Mike Atherton summed him up quite nicely in his book when he said Nicholas only speaks in hyperbole.
He's a grade A weapon.

I'm sure he'll be banning any of the toff twats that were "heckling" the Aussies in the long room then...

Mixed views on him, there's definitely a bit of smarm and I couldn't stand his commentary but I met him when I was a teenager and he was really pleasant tbh. He also wrote a fantastic foreword in Robin Smith's autobiography which was very heartfelt.
That said, he can fuck off playing ODI cricket every 4 years while we litter the international calendar with pointless T20 rubbish.

And then he'll be the first to complain when the competitions are of poor quality, due to player not playing the format for the last 4 years.So, he’s suggesting that players shouldn’t play ODI cricket for 4 years.
Blokes an idiot.

So this snobbish elitist twit has taken over from Stephen nonce Fry which is another bad appointment for cricket in my book.
So as long as Eton gets to play Harrow at Lords every year the rest of cricket following plebeians can just f**k off

Yep. His flowery, over the top, cliche ridden acceptance speech will just about take him through to the end of his term in office
