Board of Control for Cricket in India, also known as BCCI, is a privately owned organization headquartered in India. Founded in 1928, it employs approximately 90 individuals, reported $1.3B in revenue as of 2025, and functions as a tier 1 media tech buyer with its main product focus on sports teams and clubs. The company is the country's cricket governing body, recognized as the richest cricket governing body in the world and part of the "Big Three" of international cricket, alongside Cricket Australia and the England and Wales Cricket Board. The BCCI manages four squads that represent India in international cricket: the men's national cricket team, the women's national cricket team, the men’s national under-19 cricket team, and the women's national under-19 cricket team. It also governs the developmental India A and India B teams.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on March 20 addressed speculation regarding chief selector Ajit Agarkar's contract, with an official rejecting reports of him seeking an extension and clarifying that he received one last year following the team's success in the 2024 T20 World Cup and 2025 ICC Champions Trophy. Earlier on the same day, former India spinner Laxman Sivaramakrishnan announced his retirement from BCCI commentary after over two decades, alleging racism and a lack of opportunities during his 23-year tenure. This follows a report on March 19 that BCCI selectors shortlisted approximately twenty candidates for the 2027 ICC 50-over World Cup, set to be played in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia, with plans to monitor their development throughout the 2026 Indian Premier League. Also on March 19, the Indian Premier League received criticism in WCA rankings for player welfare and rights, coming under scrutiny after the BCCI reportedly insisted that the Kolkata Knight Riders release Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman in January amidst political tensions.
