On June 2, reports confirmed that Roger Binny will step down as BCCI President. Binny, who turns 70 on July 19, is required to vacate his position in accordance with BCCI’s constitution, which states that no person can hold any post after attaining the age of 70. The news gained attention on social media.
The 65-year-old urged people not to read too much into the speculation, adding that the second in command is given interim responsibility until new elections are held. Shukla said that the situation has been unnecessarily overhyped by the media.
