New Delhi: The BCCI's Annual General Meeting starts in Mumbai on Saturday. After which they will officially announce the new selection committee and launch their official website but what could raise a few eyebrows on the sidelines of the two-day meet will be Jagmohan Dalmiya's presence.
The 79th BCCI AGM will see Jagmohan Dalmiya back on familiar grounds after a gap of nearly two years. But what is surprising is Dalmiya was seen arriving at the party hosted by the outgoing President Sharad Pawar. Dalmiya will be a part of the meeting in the capacity of the President of Cricket Association of Bengal but he was tight lipped about his comeback.
"I was just one of the invitees and I came and attended the party," said Dalmiya.
The AGM will decide on a complete change of guard in the BCCI office.
Shashank Manohar will take over form Pawar as the new President, while N Srinivasan will become the new Secretary. MP Pandove from PCA takes up Srinivasan's post as the Treasurer while the new Joint Secretary will be Sanjay Jagdale.
But these changes have caused a bit of anger amongst other BCCI members.
"So many committees are supposed to be formed today, so everyone should have been taken into confidence, which I don't think is the case," said Narhari, adminitration President, GCA.
The AGM will also formally announce the new selection committee which will be headed by Krish Srikkanth. Yashpal Sharma will be named from the North Zone, Narendra Hirwani from the central, Surendra Bhave form the West and Raja Venkat from the East zone.
Besides these, Sharad Pawar-led Cricket Board's long-awaited official website will also see the light of the day.
