Snedden said that he expected the voting in favour of Srinivasan to be unanimous among the 10 test-playing nations.

The Supreme Court of India had barred Srinivasan from his duties as BCCI president while the investigation into corrupt activities around the Indian Premier League and Chennai Super Kings continues.

Stuff.co.nz quoted Snedden as emphasising that NZC wasn't voting for an individual, but for a constitutional change which allows India to appoint its chairman.

The Dominion Post quoted him, as saying further that the NZC board had no information on the allegations against Srinivasan, and the ICC was also of the view that it was not their business to comment.

Snedden also said that the Indian cricket environment was extremely volatile and political, and some of the allegations levelled at Srinivasan were by his bitter rival, Lalit Modi, formerly the sport's most powerful man in India.
