The BCCI can't take a call on its own on whether the Indian team will travel to Pakistan for the 2023 Asia Cup or not as it relies on the government to make such decisions, new Board president Rogery Binny said on Thursday. Speaking at an event organised by Karnataka State Cricket Association in Bengaluru, Binny said the BCCI has not approached the government yet on travelling to Pakistan next year but eventually the central government will only decide on the matter.

Why I Love Covering The BCCI

I cut my teeth in journalism two decades ago with an unlikely beat called BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India). I call it unlikely because in those days BCCI had just become a full-fledged beat with PILCOM coming into the picture — Jagmohan Dalmiya and IS Bindra beginning to dictate World Cricket. Along the way have seen rise and fall of several presidents and other cricket administrators, including the great Maharaja of Bengal.

Until last week, it was a common sight to find the 67-year-old among passengers who got off at the Cubbon Park metro station.

We wish to get to the bottom of why players are suffering injuries frequently: Roger Binny

Sourav Ganguly as the new BCCI president, India's 1983 World Cup winner Roger Binny spelled out his top priority for now: investigating why India's premier pacers are breaking down frequently. Just before the T20 World Cup, India suffered a big blow when they lost key pacers, Jasprit Bumrah and Deepak Chahar, to injuries. Being a seamer himself, Binny knows how fragile fast bowlers' bodies are, and what can be done to ensure they remain injury-free. "We will look to improve on what we can do to reduce the injuries to players. Bumrah got injured just before the World Cup, which affects the whole plan," Binny said after being elected unopposed as the new BCCI chief, with the new set of office-bearers by his side post the Annual General Meeting of the Board at a five-star hotel on Tuesday.
