5. Reviving the National Cricket Academy as a Centre of Excellence, which will provide a supply line for Indian cricket. The NCA will now function round the year and will not just be a rehabilitation centre for players.

6. Although the Finance Committee has already approved the central contracts for women's cricketers, Manohar finally ended the long wait yesterday

7. To abstain from casting the chairman's vote during any BCCI AGMs till the constitution is amended. He will also not use president's discretionary powers, a right given to the chairman to resolve any dispute, and go with the majority's view.
