Mithun Manhas will dip into his experience as a cricket administrator and domestic playing career to discharge his duties as the new BCCI president. The former Delhi cricketer was on Sunday elected as the 37th head of the world’s richest cricket board during its Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Mumbai.
“It’s an absolute honour to be the president of the world’s finest cricket board. It’s a huge responsibility as well. I give my assurance that I’ll be committed to do it to the best of my ability and dedication and passion,” Manhas told reporters on Sunday.
“Maybe my work, my credentials… both as an administrator, as well as a cricketer. For the past four years, I’ve been working with the JKCA, we have done reasonably well and it will certainly help,” he said when asked about the factors that worked in his election as the board’s president.
When asked if he has any particular agenda, Manhas replied in negative.
“No, there’s no such agenda. The only agenda is development and take BCCI and Indian cricket forward,” he said.
