MUMBAI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India has appointed Hemang Amin, chief operating officer of the Indian Premier league, as interim chief executive officer (CEO) in place of Rahul Johri, whose long pending resignation the BCCI finally accepted last week.
Johri was appointed as BCCI CEO in 2016 after the the board mandated head hunting firm Korn Ferry to help in the search for its first-ever CEO.
Amin’s elevation was informed to the BCCI affiliates in an internal communication by Jay Shah, BCCI secretary and son of Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
