According to the previous reports, Shah will be stepping down from the ACC to seek the chairmanship of the ICC in November 2024. At last, this news was confirmed as false.

The proposal of extending the shah’s term to one more year was kept by the President of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC), Shammi Silva. And, his proposal got unanimous support from the members of the ACC.

“Under Shah’s guidance, the ACC has been instrumental in unearthing and promoting new talent in cricketing powerhouses like Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka,” Silva said.

After reappointing as chairman of ACC, Jay Shah stated his gratitude to the board members for trusting him again to do the job.

He added further, “We must remain committed to ensuring the all-round development of the sport with a special focus on regions where it is still in its infancy. The ACC is committed to nurturing cricket across Asia”.
