Having served as BCCI secretary and chairman of the Asian Cricket Council, Shah is keen on expanding cricket's global reach. He is advocating for cricket's return to the 2028 Olympics and exploring a two-tier Test system.

Newly-elected ICC chairman Jay Shah is set to be honored by the BCCI's state units during the Special General Meeting on Sunday. Shah, who became the youngest ICC chairman, took over in December post-Greg Barclay's tenure.
