On this week's ICC Cricket World audio show ICC Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat reflects on 2009, a historic year for the ICC.

Looking back over the past 12 months, Mr Lorgat says: "It has been such a demanding year... We had four major events - the Women's World Cup, the World Twenty20, the Cricket World Cup Qualifier and the successful ICC Champions Trophy held in South Africa - which meant a lot of work. On top of that it was our centenary year and unfortunately we had the tragic incident in Lahore, which was so sad for the game."

Mr Lorgat also looks forward to 2010, saying it's all systems go for such upcoming events as the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup in New Zealand next month and the ICC World Twenty20 in the West Indies, which starts in April. In addition to those, work has already begun in preparing for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 so there is plenty to keep Mr Lorgat and his staff as busy as ever.

The show can be used in whole or part by radio stations that want cricket content, while the public can also download it straight from the ICC website at http://www.icc-cricket.com/media_interactive_zone/podcast.php.

In addition, this week's ICC Cricket World includes an interview with MS Dhoni, who describes what it's like to be captain of India, the number-one Test team. This week's show also takes a look at who will finish the year at the top of the Reliance Mobile ICC Player Rankings as well as a round-up of the latest news in the world of cricket.

The weekly ICC Cricket World audio show runs for 15 minutes and has been put together by the ICC's global broadcast partner ESPN STAR Sports.
