The International Cricket Council (ICC) found itself in an awkward position, as it sought an apology after a social media post relating to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and self-proclaimed godman Asaram Baputhat went out from its official handle. “ICC is dismayed at a non-cricket related tweet appearing on its Twitter feed earlier today. We would like to extend our sincere apologies to anyone who was offended during the short space of time it was up,” ICC said on social media. “We have launched an investigation into how this happened” the statement added.
