Possible Replacement: Mohsin Naqvi
As Jai Shah’s term nears its end, discussions are underway about his successor. According to recent reports, Mohsin Naqvi, the current president of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), is a strong candidate to take over as ACC President. Naqvi, appointed as PCB President in February 2024 for a three-year term, is leading the race due to the ACC’s rotation policy. The policy aims to ensure that leadership roles are distributed among different countries, reflecting the diverse nature of Asian cricket.

While the Indian team continues to excel and remains highly popular, the strained relations have affected cricketing exchanges between the two nations. This context adds a layer of complexity to the ACC’s decision-making process. The final decision on the new ACC President will be made in a meeting later this year
