Rohan Jaitley Turns Down BCCI Secretary Role Amid Jay Shah's ICC Chairman Bid

Sports

Rohan Jaitley, president of the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA), has denied reports that he will become the next BCCI secretary if Jay Shah is elected as ICC chairman. Jay Shah is likely to replace Greg Barclay, who has decided not to seek re-election as ICC chairman. Barclay will step down in November, and Jay Shah has emerged as the front-runner to take over.

Jay Shah's elevation to ICC chairman will create a vacancy at the BCCI, but Rohan Jaitley has stated that he is not interested in taking over as BCCI secretary. Instead, Jaitley is focused on making the league popular. Jay Shah has been a prominent cricket administrator in recent times, serving as BCCI secretary and secretary of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC).

Jaitley's denial of interest in the top job has raised questions about who will replace Jay Shah as BCCI secretary. The BCCI will need to find a suitable candidate to fill the vacancy created by Jay Shah's potential move to the ICC.
