Speculation is rife that the ‘God of Cricket’ may soon take charge as the BCCI President, with strong political backing and a likely unanimous selection at the upcoming AGM.
The buzz in the cricketing world is that Sachin Tendulkar – the ‘God of Cricket’ – could soon don a new hat as the President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). With Roger Binny’s term coming to an end, all eyes are on the 94th Annual General Meeting (AGM) on September 28, where the new president will be elected.

Reports suggest that Sachin’s name is not just in contention but is also leading the race. His 24-year service to Team India, unmatched records, clean image, and iconic status make him a strong and nearly undisputed candidate.
Sources reveal that political leaders within BCCI’s power corridors have thrown their weight behind Sachin’s candidature. A round of discussions has reportedly already taken place between Tendulkar and influential decision-makers, paving the way for a possible unanimous selection – meaning he could be chosen without any elections at all.

Traditionally, BCCI has rotated its president across regions. After East Zone’s Sourav Ganguly and South Zone’s Roger Binny, this time West Zone is expected to get its turn – making Sachin’s selection even more likely.
If he accepts, this could be Tendulkar’s biggest administrative innings yet. His appointment is expected to bring renewed focus on players’ welfare and the long-term vision for Indian cricket. However, the question remains – will the batting legend agree to take up this responsibility after years away from active cricket administration?
The cricketing world is eagerly waiting to see whether the Little Master takes guard for this historic new role.
