 "BCCI CEO Rahul Johri quits, but resignation yet to be accepted by Indian board, says report")
New Delhi: BCCI’s first chief executive officer Rahul Johri, who had tendered his resignation a while ago, might have to wait a little more before he is relieved of the plum job by the Board.

Twitter @BCCI[/caption] BCCI sources said on Sunday that Johri, appointed in 2016 to the then newly-formed position, had made up his mind to step down after the Supreme Court-appointed Committee of Administrators (CoA) exited the scene in October last year, paving the way for the Sourav Ganguly-led team to take charge. “Johri’s resignation will be accepted but it might take some time. He is trying to negotiate,” a source told PTI. Since assuming the office of CEO, Johri has been working on multiple fronts, playing a key role in selling the IPL broadcast rights to Star India for a whopping Rs. 16,348 crore. He was appointed when Shashank Manohar was BCCI president and Anurag Thakur was its secretary.
