Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma, fresh off leading the team to victory in the T20 World Cup in June, has sent a strong message to the cricketing world, asserting his unyielding determination to secure more titles. Speaking at the CEAT Cricket Rating Awards in Mumbai on Wednesday, where he was named the Men’s International Cricketer of the Year, Rohit credited three key figures—former head coach Rahul Dravid, BCCI Secretary Jay Shah, and Chairman of Selectors Ajit Agarkar—for India’s recent triumph.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary, Jay Shah, is poised to become the new chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC), according to sources. Greg Barclay, the current ICC chairman, has informed ICC directors, including Cricket Australia's chair Mike Baird, that he will not seek a third term and plans to step down when his current tenure ends in November.
