The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah is the frontrunner to become the next ICC chairman. But if Jay Shah becomes the president of the ICC, who will be the secretary of the BCCI? However, he is yet to take charge as the BCCI secretary. Arun Jaitley's son Arun Jaitley is set to become the new BCCI secretary.
Who will be BCCI secretary if Jay Shah becomes ICC president?
There has been a lot of speculation about who will replace Jay Shah as the BCCI secretary if he becomes the ICC president. A report has claimed that DDCA's Rohan Jaitley is the front-runner to replace Jay Shah as the BCCI secretary. If Jay Shah applies for the post of the next International Cricket Council (ICC) president, Rohan Jaitley will replace him as the next BCCI secretary.
BCCI secretary Jay Shah is all set to become the new president of the International Cricket Council (ICC). Applications can be submitted until the evening of August 26. Greg Barclay's term as ICC president ends on November 30.
Jay Shah's term ends in September 2025 and if he becomes the ICC chairman, he will have to resign from the post of BCCI secretary. After this, he will have to go through a cooling-off period of three-and-a-half years to regain his position in the BCCI. In such a situation, it is not yet clear whether Jay Shah will contest the election of ICC President in November or not.
Four Indians have been elected as ICC presidents so far.
So far, four Indians have held the ICC chairman's post. Jagmohan Dalmiya was the president of ICC from 1997 to 2000. Sharad Pawar was the president of the ICC from 2010 to 2012. N Srinivasan was the ICC chairman from 2014 to 2015 and Shashank Manohar from 2015-2020. Before 2015, the ICC chief was called the chief president. He was later elected its president.
