The BCCI office-bearers had reportedly decided on Monday to appoint Amin as interim CEO. The decision was communicated internally by Jay Shah.

The BCCI has in the meantime started deliberating on the appointment of the next CEO. Unlike in the past when Johri was picked by an agency – Korn Ferry – search for his successor will he handled by the board directly.
