BCCI’s 21st Apex Council meeting scheduled for Dec 18

The 21st Apex Council Meeting of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is scheduled for December 18. However, the BCCI is yet to announce the venue and time of this meeting. 

As outlined in the BCCI's release, the agenda for the meeting includes the confirmation of minutes from the 20th Apex Council Meeting, discussions on sponsorship for BCCI matches, an update on the appointment of a service provider for video equipment to cover domestic matches, and any additional business deemed necessary by the Chairperson.

India recently hosted the ODI World Cup 2023, witnessing an array of record-breaking moments. The tournament drew an impressive total of 1,250,307 spectators across 48 matches in India, surpassing the previous record set during the 2015 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, which saw 1,016,420 spectators.

The 'Men in Blue' showcased exceptional prowess throughout the prestigious tournament, maintaining an impressive 10-match winning streak. However, their journey culminated in the final game against Australia, where victory eluded them.

The previous Apex Council meeting of the BCCI took place on July 7 in Mumbai. Among the varied topics discussed, the apex body of Indian cricket deliberated on the concept of the Impact Player in the Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament.
