In a significant development in Indian cricket administration, Roger Binny’s tenure as the BCCI President has officially come to an end, with former cricketer Mithun Manhas elected as his successor at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) held in Mumbai today.

Manhas, who has been actively involved in cricket both on and off the field, earned the unanimous backing of the board members, marking a smooth transition of leadership. His appointment signals a fresh chapter for Indian cricket’s apex governing body, as he takes over the reins at a time when the BCCI continues to oversee the packed international calendar, IPL expansion talks, and upcoming ICC tournaments.

Roger Binny, who took charge in 2022, was praised for his steady tenure that saw India’s consistent dominance in world cricket and several key administrative reforms. The AGM also extended gratitude for his service before officially welcoming Manhas into the role.

Mithun Manhas, known for his domestic cricket exploits with Delhi and Jammu & Kashmir, as well as his coaching experience in the IPL, is expected to bring fresh ideas, modern outlook, and grassroots-focused development to the forefront of Indian cricket.

The cricket fraternity has already begun extending wishes to Manhas, as fans eagerly look forward to seeing the direction BCCI takes under his leadership.
