Happy Birthday Jay Shah: Indian cricketers, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly extend wishes
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah celebrates his 34th birthday today, 22 September. The son of Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Jay Shah assumed the post of BCCI Secretary in October 2019.
Former India skipper Sourav Ganguly was elected the President of the board at the same time. Though their three-year tenure was to be completed this year, the Supreme Court, on 14 September approved BCCI’s proposal to make modifications to the board’s constitution, which would allow Ganguly and Shah to continue in their existing roles without having to undergo the required three-year cooling-off period. However, no final decision has been taken yet by BCCI in this matter. Notably, Shah also holds the position of the President of the Asian Cricket Council.
On the occasion of Jay Shah’s birthday, a lot of former and active Indian cricketers have come forward to extend their best wishes
Ganguly took to his personal Twitter handle and wished a “very happy birthday” to his colleague. “May god bless him with a healthy and long life of happiness and success,” Dada further wrote.

In light of the Supreme Court decision, it remains to be seen if the BCCI’s annual general meeting, provisionally scheduled for October 18 in Mumbai, will include any additional surprises. Elections at the upcoming AGM are very certainly not going to happen, as per reports, but equations have been known to shift on the floor of the house before. Although it is too soon to draw any conclusions, there has been no indication that the BCCI’s leadership will change. The board is anticipated to choose continuity in line with the apex court.
