London: He is living in exile and facing arrest but that has not stopped sacked IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi from preparing the blueprint for a breakaway governing body for cricket to rival the ICC -- a plan which he claims is the future "world order".

Modi, who faces allegations of financial impropriety and is currently based here, said the new body would be affiliated with the Olympic movement and oversee Test and T20 competitions, while scrapping the ODI format altogether. "We're talking about another cricketing system. There is a blueprint out there, it's got my rubber stamp on it," Modi told the 'Australian Broadcasting Corporation'.
