ACE takes USA Cricket to court as power struggle intensifies
The Island
|September 18, 2025
There has been a power struggle at the heart of cricket in the USA for over a month now and it escalated on Tuesday, with American Cricket Enterprises (ACE), the parent company of Major League Cricket (MLC), taking USA Cricket (USAC) to court for "improper termination" of their contract.
-
The two parties had been commercial partners since May 2019 but a few weeks ago USA ended it saying ACE had failed to "fulfill its contractual and fiduciary obligations", including payments due to the national team and support staff. ACE disputed this, claiming it had actually offered more than the agreed amount.
An ACE press release said on Wednesday: "USAC's handling of the ACE agreement has been chaotic and reckless. It is emblematic of USAC's bad faith. A small group of USAC directors have chosen to prioritize politics rather than preparing teams that can build on their recent successes.
"These actions have jeopardized ACE's significant investments into U.S. cricket over the last six years, as well as the continued success of cricket in the US.
