On Visarjan day, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley flew in quietly to Mumbai and sealed Shashank Manohar’s appointment as BCCI president.On Sunday, as the city was busy sending off its resident deity, some of the Indian cricket’s most powerful men got together in an ultrasecret meeting at a Bandra five-star to seal the appointment of Shashank Manohar as the BCCI’s next president. The discussion was headed by Arun Jaitley, union finance minister and easily the most powerful man in the Indian cricket administration today. He was joined by Manohar, Board’s secretary Anurag Thakur, and Maharashtra Cricket Association chief Ajay Shirke. Earlier in the day, Manohar and Shirke visited Sharad Pawar at the latter's residence in Mumbai.A wide range of issues were discussed during the nearly three-hour meeting, including the dwindling credibility of the Board, the thorny issue of conflict of interest that is at the centre of all of former BCCI president N Srinivasan’s woes, and even the question upper most in every fan’s mind – why is the country no longer producing enough match-winners.Some of those present also raised concerns about the top officials’ internal mails finding their way to the media with worrying regularity. “Those present wanted the new administration, more precisely the new president, to take measures that will restore the Board’s credibility,” the source said without elaborating on the matter of snooping and hacking.The Board's credibility took a huge beating after the Supreme Court barred Srinivasan from continuing as the BCCI president in the wake of the IPL match-fixing controversy and the conflict of interest (Srinivasan had a stake in Chennai Super Kings while heading the Board).To make matters worse for Srinivasan and the Board, his son-in-law Gurunathan Maiyappan was found guilty of betting during the IPL matches.The Board sources said that one of the top agendas of the new president, Manohar, would be to ensure the BCCI delivers a clean IPL, wherein there would be no conflict of interest among its members.Among other points, the officials felt that the Board should take measures and implement points that are largely likely to be addressed by the Lodha Committee. “The Lodha Committee is expected to come up with suggestions with regard to the governance of the Board and the members felt that the new dispensation should draw up a plan to deal with conflict of interest, corruption and issues related to transperancy.The four also brooded over cricketing points and discussed why the country is no longer is able to produce world-class batsmen such as Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid. Currently, India only have Virat Kohli who can walk into any side in the world. A BCCI source said, "Efforts will be made to make Ranji Trophy and domestic cricket more effective."
