List of members of BCCI
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has member associations grouped into five geographic zones: North, Central, East, West and South. Members include state associations, regional bodies, union territory associations and institutional teams.
Most of the member associations govern cricket in their respective states, while some govern the sport in specific cities or regions. Others govern cricket in union territories, and some represent government institutions such as Indian Railways and the Indian Armed Forces.
Affiliated Members
Membership of the Board of Control for Cricket in India is made up of Full Members and Associate Members.[1][2]
Full Members
The majority of full members are state cricket associations. Each state is permitted one representative, except for Gujarat and Maharashtra which have three each. There are additional representatives from Indian Railways and Indian Armed Forces' Services. Changes recommended by the Lodha Committee included restricting full membership to state associations and limiting states to one full member, with the others becoming associate members,[3] but these have not been fully adopted by the BCCI, with existing members retaining full membership except for Cricket Club of India (Mumbai) and National Cricket Club (Kolkata).[4]
