New BCCI President Roger Binny to address injury concerns of players, pitches in India

(FASTNEWS | COLOMBO) –  Binny, a member of the 1983 World Cup, took over as the BCCI president from another former India captain Sourav Ganguly on Tuesday.

Minutes after taking over as the new president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Roger Binny said that the office-bearers would sit down soon and discuss how to address the injury concern of the cricketers.

“As the BCCI president, I want to primarily focus on two things. First is the prevention of injuries to the players. Jasprit Bumrah got injured just before the World Cup, which affects the whole plan,” Binny said. “Second, I want to focus on the pitches in the country… The wickets in India should be lively so when we go overseas, it helps our players. “
