Calcutta: The AGM of Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), on Monday, saw a host of decisions being taken. From initiating its promised clean-up operation to restore the image of the Board to rejigging of several committees to approval of new Test centres, a lot happened in Mumbai during the day.

Among the decisions taken, one of the most important ones was the one related to the senior selection committee.

Two changes have been made in the selection committee, with Roger Binny and Rajinder Singh Hans making way for MSK Prasad and Gagan Khoda.

That Roger was set to be replaced and Prasad, a former India 'keeper, was likely to come in was reported by The Telegraph in Monday's city editions.

[Observing that Indian cricket is going through transformation, Prasad said selection would be a challenging task .

"Right now, we are in a transformation stage. To identify fresh talent, to identify players who can go on to become legends and serve for the country for long... With such a vast pool of talent available in the country, it is a big challenge which I will definitely enjoy," Prasad said, reports PTI.]

With son Stuart a contender whenever national teams are picked, Roger would be violating the conflict of interest rules if he stayed on as a selector.

The appointment of Khoda in place of Hans, however, came as a surprise.

Conflict of interest also came in the ways of Ravi Shastri and Anil Kumble.

While Shastri has been removed from the IPL governing council, Kumble has lost his place in the BCCI technical committee.

Shastri is of course India's team director and as per the BCCI guidelines, he could not have kept his place in the governing council.

The rule for cricketers (retired) reads: "Cricketers on the payroll of the BCCI or holding contracts with BCCI shall not be on any BCCI committees including IPL GC."

Kumble is involved with a player management firm and he's also with the Mumbai Indians, an IPL franchise. Both these factors resulted in Kumble being removed from the technical committee. He was the chairman of the committee.

As per BCCI's revised definition of an 'administrator', Kumble would be one. The rule that implies in his case reads: "An administrator or his near relative shall not be on the payroll of an IPL Franchise."

This newspaper had said in its report on Sunday that if Kumble is reappointed by the Board, then he'd have to choose between "roles which help pay his and the family's bills and an honorary position in the BCCI".

Former India captain and current Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) president Sourav Ganguly has been named as the new chairman of the technical committee.

Sourav has also kept his place in the IPL governing council, which has been pruned massively. While Rajeev Shukla remains the chairman, the other members of the governing council are Jyotiraditya Scindia, Ajay Shirke, MP Pandove and Sourav.

The late Jagmohan Dalmiya's son, Avishek, who is also the CAB joint secretary, has been made the chairman of the new area development committee.

The junior selection committee will be headed by former India medium-pacer Venkatesh Prasad. He replaced Conor Williams.

The disciplinary committee of the Board for 2015-16 will be chaired by BCCI president Shashank Manohar, with Scindia and Niranjan Shah as the other members.Manohar also named the nine cities that would be available for the bidders to buy the two new IPL teams, who would replace suspended Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, in the next two editions of IPL.

The cities named were: Rajkot, Pune, Chennai, Vishakapatnam, Cuttack, Ranchi, Nagpur, Indore and Dharamsala.
