Rohan Jaitley Emerges as Top Candidate for BCCI Joint Secretary Role

Rohan Jaitley, the President of the Delhi & District Cricket Association (DDCA), has emerged as the front-runner for the crucial BCCI Joint Secretary position. With the Special General Meeting (SGM) scheduled for March 1, 2025, at the BCCI headquarters in Mumbai, the election for this important role is set to take place, marking a significant shift in Indian cricket administration.

Jaitley to Replace Devajit Saikia as BCCI Joint Secretary

The position of BCCI Joint Secretary has been vacant since Devajit Saikia was promoted to the post of Secretary in December 2024 following Jay Shah’s election as ICC Chairman. As per BCCI’s regulations, the vacant role must be filled within 45 days, prompting the organization to organize this Special General Meeting (SGM) to elect the new Joint Secretary.

In an official statement, the BCCI confirmed the meeting details, mentioning that the election of the new Joint Secretary will be the only agenda for the March 1 meeting. The meeting is scheduled to begin at 12:00 PM IST at the BCCI headquarters in Mumbai.

Strong Competition, But Jaitley Leads the Race

While Rohan Jaitley faces competition from seasoned cricket administrators like Abhishek Dalmiya (former president of the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB)) and Sanjay Naik (official with the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA)), he remains the leading contender for the role. Jaitley’s extensive experience in cricket administration, coupled with his growing influence within the BCCI, makes him the most likely candidate for the position.

Jaitley’s Background and Growing Influence in Indian Cricket

As the DDCA president, Jaitley has built a strong reputation as a capable administrator and has been instrumental in organizing and overseeing various cricketing activities in the national capital. His strategic vision and leadership within the DDCA have made him a respected figure in Indian cricket governance, strengthening his candidacy for the coveted role of BCCI Joint Secretary.

If Jaitley is elected, he will take on a pivotal role in managing key administrative functions within the BCCI. The Joint Secretary’s responsibilities include overseeing operations, coordinating with state associations, and working closely with other BCCI officials to ensure the smooth conduct of domestic and international cricket events.

Why This Election Matters for Indian Cricket

The election of the BCCI Joint Secretary is particularly important as the BCCI prepares for major international tournaments, including the Champions Trophy 2025 and the IPL 2025. The BCCI is also looking to introduce reforms in the domestic structure and streamline its operations, making the role of the Joint Secretary crucial in shaping the future of Indian cricket.

This election marks an exciting period for the BCCI as it seeks to maintain its standing as one of the most powerful cricket boards in the world.

What’s Next for the BCCI Joint Secretary Election

The election on March 1 will be a critical moment for Rohan Jaitley and other candidates vying for the role. With the election drawing near, all eyes will be on the BCCI headquarters in Mumbai, where the board members will cast their votes to determine who will take on this prestigious and influential position within Indian cricket.

[ad_1] Virat Kohli at the Border Gasvaskar Trophy 2024-25 (PC: Debasis Sen) With the influx of the biggest stars in Indian cricket to the domestic circuit, Ranji Trophy is buzzing like never before. Following India’s failure against New Zealand and Australia, BCCI has put pen to paper and set a mandate that necessitates centrally contracted players to participate in the domestic circuit, and fans consequently saw the likes of Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal and now Virat Kohli take the field for their state teams. Kohli, who last played a Ranji match in the 2012-13 season, is all set to take part in the practice session this morning, as he gears up for the clash against Railways, on January 30. Meanwhile, cricket fans in Delhi are bumbling to see their idol up and close at the Arun Jaitley stadium. Rohan Jaitley, DDCA President, has proactively made special arrangements at the stadium as he expects fans to queue up in large numbers. Despite ongoing renovations at the stadium, DDCA is preparing to host nearly 10,000 spectators. Special stands will be opened if the pre-planned arrangements are not sufficient. Apart from that, DDCA has facilitated free-of-cost entry for fans willing to watch the game. Kohli will only appear in the Ranji Trophy once this season as he missed Delhi’s group-stage match against Saurashtra due to a neck strain. It is worth considering whether his participation in the domestic circuit reflects genuine intent or merely tokenism prompted by the BCCI’s new policy, as appears to be the case with other Indian cricketing stars. If anything, it would have made more sense if the BCCI had mandated the centrally contracted players’ participation in domestic red-ball tournaments, heading into the three back-to-back test series that India played against Bangladesh, New Zealand and Australia. The timing of their participation seems off considering India is now preparing for the Champions Trophy. Nonetheless, as star players take the field for their state teams, fans are turning up in large numbers to watch the Ranji Trophy Games. For the first time in a long while, there’s a renewed interest in domestic matches. However, whether this momentum of interest will sustain remains an open question. At the end of the day, sport is for the fans, and as young kids walk in at the Arun Jaitley stadium to watch their idol, they are sure to get inspired to take up the sport. Young players in the Delhi dressing room will also have an opportunity to rub shoulders with one of the greatest batters of the generation and take inspiration from how Kohli goes about his business on the field.

Organisations don’t become good or bad within the preceding 30 days of an election,” he added.

Secretary Contest: Ashok Sharma emerged as the frontrunner for the role of secretary with 688 votes.

Jaitley's Vision: Jaitley reiterated that his administration’s achievements would speak for themselves and emphasized the continuity of their vision for the future of Delhi cricket.
