The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) elected Roger Binny as its 36th President during its 91st Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Mumbai on Tuesday.  Sourav Ganguly was also present with him.  Binny was elected unopposed who represents the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA).  Binny is the first World Cup champion to become the BCCI President.  Binny was a member of the team when India won the ODI World Cup for the first time in 1983 under the captaincy of Kapil Dev.
Binny, 67, is not new to cricket administration.  He has also played the role of a coach, a former national selector before this.  He has worked with the same organization before taking over as the President of the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA).  When Binny takes over as the head of the country's cricket board, the expectations from him are also high.
