BCCI AGM and elections set to take place on September 28 at Mumbai Headquarters

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is set to hold its annual general meeting (AGM) on September 28 at its headquarters in Mumbai. During the upcoming meeting, elections will be held for several key positions within the board, including the president, which has been left vacant for the past few months.

Roger Binny stepped down as BCCI president, as the board’s constitution requires office bearers to retire upon reaching 70. He had succeeded Sourav Ganguly in 2019. Binny’s exit opens the path for a high-profile new appointment, while vice president Rajeev Shukla is currently serving as interim president.
