Former India skipper Sourav Ganguly takes charge as 39th BCCI president Wednesday Oct 23,2019

With him, Jay Shah, the son of Union Home Minister Amit Shah, also began his tenure as the new secretary while Arun Dhumal took charge as BCCI treasurer.

Arun Dhumal is the younger brother of Union Minister of State for Finance and former BCCI president Anurag Thakur

There were no elections held for appointments of the posts since all candidates were elected unopposed 

Sourav Ganguly is also the first Indian cricketer after the Maharaja of Vizianagaram to become the president of BCCI.

Sourav Ganguly, however, will be able to serve as BCCI chief only up to September 2020 since he is currently the president of Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) and will have to go into a compulsory cooling-off period.
