Amit Shah’s family also played an important role when India won the T20 World Cup. BCCI i.e. Board of Control for Cricket in India Chairman and Secretary Jay Shah is the son of Amit Shah, who runs the country at the helm of governing and controlling Indian cricket. Amit Shah’s son’s full name is Jay Amitbhai Shah. Jaisha not only manages Indian cricket but is also the president of the Asian Cricket Council.
The Indian Cricket Board is also the most powerful sports organization in the world. All aspects of Indian cricket are decided, directed, managed, including game discipline and made by the BCCI headed by Jaisha.
Jaisha is currently in Barbados with the World Cup players. Indian players cannot come to India from Barbados. Because the airport in Barbados was closed due to hurricanes and bad weather. All flights have been suspended. BCCI Secretary Jai Shah’s intervention with the players in this situation is now getting the applause of the nation.
India’s special luxury plane will land in Barbados. Indian players will be carried on this flight. BCCI will bear the full cost of this. BCCI secretary Jai Shah is making all the moves. The team’s return trip was delayed after the Barbados airport was closed due to heavy rains following Cyclone Beryl. Despite winning the World Cup, 150 crore Indians are waiting for their favorite team. This wait will soon be over. The Indian team is expected to reach New Delhi around 7.45 pm on Wednesday. There are about 70 people in the Indian team, including the players, their family members and the coaching staff.

The Indian team had hoped to return home on Monday, but the airport was closed due to continued rain. Jaisha also stated that it will soon be possible to bring everyone home safely
Jaisha’s appointment as the head of the Cricket Board caused a huge controversy. Criticism was heard that father Amit Shah’s power and influence was used for this. But now the all-baked answer to that criticism is the World Cup that India got and the cricket board headed by Jay Shah who prepared the team. Jai Shah is an Indian businessman and cricket administrator. In 2019, he became the Secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India. Jay Shah also has the honor of being one of the rare persons who has remained in the helm for such a long time at such a young age. Jaisha is also known as a big businessman in addition to being the son of India’s Home Minister Amit Shah.
After serving as a member of the Executive Board of the Central Board of Cricket in Ahmedabad since 2009, Shah took over as the Joint Secretary of the Gujarat Cricket Association in September 2013. During his tenure as Joint Secretary, he oversaw the construction of the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, along with his father, Amit Shah, who was the GCA President at the time Jai Shah also learned administrative lessons under him.
Jaisha has been appointed as the president of the Asian Cricket Council for the third time. The election was unanimous in the annual general body meeting held in Bali. Sri Lankan Cricket Board President Shammi Silva once again suggested Jay Shah’s name for the post of President. Jay Shah will become the President of the Asian Cricket Council for the first time in January 2021. The term was two years. He was re-elected as president in 2023 for one more year.
In 2022, Jaisha led BCCI’s record-breaking Indian Premier League media rights deal, where the league’s 5-year rights were sold for a total of Rs 48,390 crore, making IPL the second most valuable sports league in the world. Just behind is the Indian Premier League cricket competition estimated at 48390 crores.
In December 2019, the BCCI chose Shah as its representative for future CEC meetings of the International Cricket Council. In April, Jai Shah was also appointed as the ICC Board Member Representative, and in November 2022, Shah was elected as the head of the ICC’s all-powerful Finance and Commercial Affairs (F&CA) Committee at the board meeting. In February 2015, Shah met his college girlfriend. Jay Shah is married to Rishita Patel. Jaisha is also a close friend of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Controversy has followed Jay Shah along with his accomplishments. The Wire, an anti-government media outlet, reported that the revenue of Shah’s company had increased 16,000 times since Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister of India. Such news came in an article in October 2017. Shah filed a criminal defamation case and a civil suit of ₹100 crore against the editors of The Wire who reported. Filed.. This case is now in full swing against The Wire. In 2018, The Wire was also ruled barring Jay Shah’s businesses from publishing any content linking him to Modi. In August 2019, The Wire withdrew its appeal against the criminal defamation case and announced it would face trial.
Meanwhile, an online media in Kerala published a news in Malayalam about Jay Shah and MA Yousafali. It was also alleged that Amit Shah’s Kaman Jay Shah’s company made Rs 8000 crore under the guise of demonetisation. Allegations were also made that MA Yousafali was involved in handling black money.
Online channel news said that this money arrived in J Shah’s account the next day of demonetisation. In the video, it was said that the Prime Minister’s office was involved in the corruption. Then the Lucknow court issued an arrest warrant against the online channeler. The case related to this is still going on seriously in Lucknow court.
In any case, the Indian cricket administration led by Jay Shah is now in full confidence. It has not only made Indian cricket the richest game in the world but also brought the World Cup.
Jaisha wrote with the Indian team by putting an end to the 17-year T-20 title reign. But when Jay Shah became strong in the leadership, coach Rahul Dravid has stopped working, and with this, Rahul Dravid is moving from the position of the head coach of the Indian team, which is very painful for the fans. BCCI approached Dravid to continue in the coaching position but Dravid withdrew. Now Jaysha has come forward and revealed the reason behind Dravid’s withdrawal. He wants to spend time with his family, we respect that and we have not pressured him. He has played a major role in Indian cricket for the past five and a half years.
He served as the Director of the National Cricket Academy for three years and then as the head coach of the Indian team for two and a half years. He was just as crucial to the team’s success as captain Rohit Sharma. What could not be accomplished as the head coach who took India to the finals of the 2023 ODI World Cup has now been done,’ said Jay Shah. Currently, Gautam Gambhir and W.V. Rama too. However, cricket observers and former players say that Gautam Gambhir is more likely to become India’s head coach. Everyone is watching Jay Shah’s position in this regard. At the end of the 2024 T20 World Cup, Indian captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli had retired from the T20 format.
