The BCCI is where Sourav Ganguly will end his innings. Ganguly is not expected to participate in the BCCI elections on October 18th, according to circulating reports. Ganguly is being considered to be India’s candidate for the position of Chairman of the International Cricket Council. Numerous publications have reported that Roger Binny has a strong chance of succeeding as BCCI President.

Dainik Jagran, a prominent Hindi news publication, reported that top BCCI officials met on Thursday. Additionally, it was decided among officials that Ganguly will not run for office.

Ganguly, Jay Shah, Vice President Rajiv Shukla, Treasurer Arun Dhummal, and former BCCI President N. Srinivasan was reported to have attended the meeting. 

According to the report, Jay Shah is likely to run again for the POST of BCCI Secretary.

The state associations have begun submitting nominations for representatives to the BCCI AGM ahead of the October 12 deadline. Roger Binny has been unexpectedly chosen by the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) to serve as their candidate for Santosh Menon’s replacement in the upcoming elections. In the meantime, Avishek Dalmiya is absent from the electoral rolls in significant numbers.

In advance of the BCCI Elections later this month, 35 of the 38 state units, according to a Cricbuzz report, have submitted nominations for their representatives. Universities, railways, and services have requested additional time with the electoral officer. The nominations can be submitted on October 11 and 12, as previously mentioned.

The same will be examined on October 13 and withdrawn on October 14. Meanwhile, the elections are scheduled for October 18, which is also the day of the BCCI AGM.

Roger Binny, one of the 35 names listed, is the most surprising candidate to take Santosh Menon’s place.The all-rounder who won the World Cup is the president of the KSCA, and there are rumours that he might be hired for one of the open positions in the BCCI Office.

Anirudh Chaudhry from Haryana, a former BCCI treasurer, is one of the other prominent names on the list.Vaibhav Gehlot, the son of Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot, and Mohammad Azharuddin, a Hyderabadi, are also on the Electoral Rolls.
