There is no possibility of election of a new secretary of the board in the AGM meeting.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is scheduled to hold its 93rd Annual General Meeting (AGM) on September 19 at the Four Seasons Hotel in Bengaluru. The state associations have been informed about the AGM meeting on Thursday, September 5 through a notice. The meeting will begin with the inauguration of the much-hyped High Performance Centre in Bengaluru.
BCCI secretary will not be elected in the AGM meeting
There is a lot of discussion going on about who will become the new BCCI secretary after Jay Shah becomes the ICC chairman. There are reports of Arun Jaitley’s son Rohan Jaitley becoming the BCCI secretary. There were speculations that the BCCI secretary would be elected in the AGM. However, there is no possibility of the board’s new secretary being elected in the AGM meeting on September 29.
If the Annual General Meeting (AGM) goes as planned, the BCCI will have to hold a Special General Meeting (SGM) to elect a new secretary, which will be held on December 1 before Jay Shah’s tenure as ICC chairman begins.
Roger Binny may be elected BCCI representative
Another important point in the 18-point agenda is the appointment of BCCI’s representative in the ICC meetings, as Shah will no longer be available for that role. The board will have to appoint someone who knows the ins and outs. According to sources, BCCI president Roger Binny is likely to be appointed as the BCCI representative in the ICC.
According to a report in Cricbuzz, some of the other items on the agenda are – election and inclusion of two representatives of the General Body in the IPL Governing Council, inclusion of a representative from the Indian Cricketers Association in the IPL Governing Council, annual budget, appointment of Ombudsman and Ethics Officer. Appointment of Cricket Committee and Standing Committee and formation of an Umpires Committee.
