BCB board of directors now official

The National Sports Council (NSC) yesterday officially announced the newly elected board of directors of the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
Maj Gen Sina Ibne Jamali, who was president of the ad-hoc committee, has been reappointed chief while the NSC has nominated Feroz Ahmed as its representative on the board to complete 25-member executive committee.
The other 23 directors were elected by councillors' votes on November 25.
Although the name of former cricketer Shakil Kaesm, who was development committee chairman, very actively, under the ad-hoc committee, looked to be favourite for the post, Feroz won the nod of the NSC in the end.
Feroz, a businessman from Chittagong and also a member of the ad-hoc committee, was a rather ineffective associate as he attended less than five out of 13 meetings of the ad-hoc committee. He was made members of several committees including the Cricket Committee of Dhaka Metropolis and the umpires' committee but hardly attended their activities.
The executive committee will have its first meeting on November 26 and its first priority would be to elect a senior vice-president and two vice-presidents within the board of directors according to the amended constitution of BCB.
It is expected that the three vice-presidents will be elected in the very first meeting through secret ballot.
