There is barely a month left for the BCCI's affiliated state associations to hold their elections [by September 14] as per the timeline issued by the Committee of Administrators (CoA). But while the CoA says that 25 to 26 units are fully compliant with the new BCCI constitution, the BCCI website shows only 14. Though the Supreme Court-appointed CoA is confident of holding the BCCI elections as per schedule on October 22, with the majority of state units still not fully compliant, it is a growing concern for the three-member committee.

During the August 5 meeting, CoA chief Vinod Rai had emphatically stated that 26 state cricket associations of the BCCI have complied to the new constitution and electoral officers have been appointed too. After Tuesday's CoA meeting, its member Ravindra Thodge too emphasised that the BCCI elections will take place as per their timeline. "More than 24 to 25 bodies have fallen in line. The intentions are to hold the elections around the date which has been set," he said. Although the CoA is bracing up for minor delays, they are confident that most state associations will be on board for the BCCI elections.
