Other major leagues were canceled due to the Corona issue, but we have managed to hold the IPL season on Dubai soil, he says.
Controversies and Challenges
Jay Shah has been in charge of Indian cricket as the BCCI Secretary for the past few years. During his tenure, BCCI and Pakistan Cricket Board were often at loggerheads. Shah opposed hosting the entire Asia Cup in Pakistan. Then India’s matches were played at a neutral venue i.e. Sri Lanka.
Jay Shah Says Power When Jay Shah was asked about the biggest availability of his tenure, he touched on various issues. He said that even with a big problem like Corona, I was able to organize IPL in UAE in 2020, which is my biggest achievement.
