Roger Binny is no longer the Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) president, with vice-president Rajeev Shukla currently in charge as acting chief until the next elections, sources told media. Shukla will be in charge till the next BCCI elections that is likely to happen in September. In 2015, he was re-appointed unanimously as the chairman of IPL by the BCCI. On 18 December 2020, he was elected unopposed Vice President of the BCCI.
The BCCI Apex Council meeting, which took place on Wednesday, saw Shukla take charge as the acting chief, according to a report in Dainik Jagran. The report mentioned that the main agenda of the meeting was to discuss Team India's new lead sponsor, following Dream11's exit earlier this month. However, with the Asia Cup starting on September 9, getting a new sponsor on board before the event remains a huge challenge.
