India's Jai Shah has been elected the youngest chairman in the history of ICC at the age of 35. No other board member stood against him in the fight to get this position. The current membership of the ICC is 16, out of which Jai Shah has the votes of 15 members. It is heard that Pakistan was only a spectator in this selection meeting of ICC.

Australia and New Zealand Cricket Board stood by Jai Shah at the beginning of the election. Gradually he got the support of other members. Although the Pakistan Cricket Board has not publicly objected, their silent role has been questioned. Since there was no public objection from Pakistan, there was no obstacle to Jai Shah's election as ICC chairman.

An ICC official said the PCB did not comment and their opinion was not important here as the rest of the members all supported Jai Shah. In this situation, the PCB was just a spectator and did not express any opinion.

The Champions Trophy is going to be held in Pakistan in February next year. But India's participation is still uncertain. With Jai Shah as ICC chairman, former Pakistani cricketer Rashid Latif is hopeful that there is an understanding with Pakistan. Perhaps that is why Pakistan did not oppose this election.

Jai Shah's selection to the post is not only his achievement but it is expected to increase India's influence in the world of cricket in the future. With this selection, India has created a strong position at the top level of cricket administration, which can play an important role in decision-making in the future.
