The Tongan Cricket Association has been suspended from the International Cricket Council (ICC) after failing to meet membership requirements.
At its annual conference last June in London the ICC passed a resolution to suspend Tonga because its administration was not up to standard. The TCA was made aware of its obligations to meet standards last year when a warning was issued by the ICC.
The TCA is headed by Hon. Sangster Saulala, who is currently Tonga's Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.
