The 91st Annual General Meeting of the BCCI was held at the Taj Palace hotel in Mumbai today. 

Former Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) President Roger Binny has been named the successor of [Sourav Ganguly](https://technosports.co.in/2022/10/16/sourav-ganguly-to-contest-for/) as the president of the BCCI. The 67-year-old becomes the 36th president of the Indian Cricket Board following their annual general meeting.

The meeting resulted in a confirmation that the Women’s Indian Premier League will be organised in the coming year. No set date has been finalised, but March is being rumoured as a possible date for the tournament. 

The Senior Men’s Future Tour Programs for 2023-2027 and Senior Women’s Future Tour Programs for 2022-2025 were also agreed upon by the general body. 

> As the BCCI president, I want to primarily focus on 2 things. First is the prevention of injuries to the players. Jasprit Bumrah got injured just before the World Cup, which affects the whole plan. Second, I want to focus on the pitches in the country: BCCI president Roger Binny [pic.twitter.com/qiSCNUtUNm](https://t.co/qiSCNUtUNm)
