The 57-year-old burly cricket administrator had a routine operation but he was feeling unwell even before reaching the hospital. His wife and children were at his bed-side and guests were not allowed to visit him.
Sonn is the sixth person to head the ICC, following Colin Cowdrey (1989-93), Sir Clyde Walcott (1993-97), Jagmohan Dalmiya (1997-2000), Malcolm Gray (2000-2003) and Ehsan Mani (2003-2006).
Prior to his appointment as the ICC president, he had a two-year stint as the organisation's vice-president.
