AFP, MUMBAI: Shashank Manohar was unanimously elected president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Sunday, vowing to restore the governing body’s image after a series of scandals.
The Nagpur-based lawyer succeeds veteran administrator Jagmohan Dalmiya, who died last month, in what is arguably the most powerful job in world cricket.
“Mr Shashank Manohar elected,” the BCCI said on its official twitter account @BCCI after a special general body meeting at its headquarters in Mumbai.
