Jay Shah: Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah is in the news these days. Actually, the election for the post of President of the International Cricket Council (ICC) is to be held this year and the current president Graeme Barclay has refused to contest the election.

In such a situation, the name of BCCI secretary Jay Shah has joined the race for this post. Shah seems to be the strongest candidate to hold this post. If Shah becomes the President of ICC, then there are three names who can hold the post of secretary of the cricket board. However, these three have never played cricket in their lives.

Arun Dhumal can become secretary

If we talk about BCCI secretary, then Arun Dhumal's name will probably be at the forefront in this race.

He is currently the chairman of IPL and he can be at the forefront in this race. Earlier, his brother Anurag Thakur has been the Sports Minister.

His father has also been the Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh and due to his good hold in politics, he can become the Secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India. Apart from this, he has been associated with the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association.

Rajiv Shukla can become the secretary of the board

BCCI vice-president Rajeev Shukla can also join this race and he can replace Jay Shah.

Rajeev has been associated with the board for the last several years. Due to his good hold on politics, he has remained with the board irrespective of which government is in power.

In such a situation, he can benefit from this political hold and he would definitely want to become the secretary from the post of vice-president. Let us tell you that Shukla has also been the president of IPL before and in 2020 he became the vice-president of BCCI.

Ashish Shelar is also involved in this race

Ashish Shelar, Mumbai President of Bharatiya Janata Party can also replace Jay Shah.

Let us tell you that earlier he had also won the assembly elections but at present he is the President of Mumbai BJP and he has also been associated with cricket before this.

Talking about Ashish Shelar, he has been associated with the Maharashtra Cricket Association and he has a good reputation in politics and hence he can also hold this post.
