V Chamundeswaranath has switched panels in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). He will be the players representative to the Apex Council of the BCCI. He was previously the member of the Governing Council of the IPL, a position taken by Shubhangi Kulkarni. Kulkarni was on the Apex Council as a woman nominee.

Shantha Rangaswamy, a former India women's captain, has been elected president of the ICA. There was election for only one position -- that of Apex Council member. Chamundeswaranath defeated V Jadeja 755-83 in the 838 votes polled through e-voting.
