Jagmohan Dalmiya's re-election as president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India on March 2 was an event in itself.
Here was a man who, after being at the helm of Indian as well world cricket and setting in motion the processes that led to the BCCI becoming the rich, all-powerful body it is today, was expelled by the BCCI in 2006 over charges of misappropriation of funds during the 1996 World Cup. Then, in January 2014, he hinted that he wasn't interested in getting too involved with the BCCI again, even if he had accepted the position of interim president in the wake of the 2013 Indian Premier League spot-fixing scandal. But here he is. Almost 75. But back in the saddle.
