THE WORLD
COMES TO INDIA
THE BCCI was the host for ICC WT20,
2016. It was for the first time that both
the Mens and Womens World Cup were
hosted simultaneously in India.
A total of 16 teams participated in
the tournament. Ten teams qualified
automatically through their status as

Council and another six qualified through
the 2015 World Twenty20 qualifier.
A total of 48 matches were played across
the following eight venues:
Bengaluru
Dharamshala
Kolkata
Mohali
Mumbai
Nagpur
New Delhi
Chennai
Most of the qualifying matches were
played at HPCA Stadium, Dharamshala
and VCA stadium, Nagpur.
The BCCI appointed a Committee to ensure
that the event is organised successfully.
ICC World T20 was a huge success with
good attendance at the stadiums, excellent
TV viewership and in terms of viewership
over digital platforms, the event delivered a
record 320 million video views across ICC
digital properties and social media pages.
IT WAS FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT BOTH THE MENS AND WOMENS ICC
WT20 WERE HOSTED SIMULTANEOUSLY IN INDIA BY THE BCCI

NORTH EAST
INDIAS NORTH East, called the Land of
the Seven Sisters, obscured from much
of the world by ageless forests and
formidable mountain ranges, is one of the
most beautiful, unspoilt, and ecologically
and culturally diverse parts of our country.
The Seven Sisters are Assam, Meghalaya,
Manipur, Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh,
Mizoram and Tripura. The people of the
North East also have formidable sporting
talent. BCCI has undertaken several
initiatives towards the promotion and
development of cricket in this region.
The current status of the North Eastern
states with respect to the BCCI is as
follows:
Sikkim and Manipur are associate
members.

SECURITY The fire fighting system at M.
Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru was
enhanced in 2016. The system uses three
different types of pumpselectrical, diesel
and jockey. This will facilitate quick water
supply to fire extinguishing points.
KSCA has installed a state-of-the-art
124-camera CCTV system around the
stadium for security and surveillance.
The outdoor cameras cover the entire
perimeter of stadium and all gates.
Fourteen indoor cameras cover all rooms
and corridors. The monitoring room, with
five display monitors, is functional 24 x 7.
During matches, there is a Venue Operating
Centre for the police. The updated setup
was put into action in March 2016.
SEATING All the stands in the
Chinnaswamy Stadium have been
provided with tip-up seats to provide
comfort to spectators. 28,000 imported
seats have been installed at a cost of Rs
9.2 crore.

HIMACHAL PRADESH
The Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association
(HPCA) got affiliated to the Board of
Control for Cricket in India as a full-fledged
member in 1984. Initially considered a
minnow in Indian cricket, the HPCA was
transformed with a change of guard in
2000. In 2002, the foundation stone was
laid for the stadium at Dharamshala,
which is today one of the most picturesque
cricket grounds in the world.
ACADEMIES AND COACHING HPCA also
has cricket stadiums at Bilaspur, Nadaun
and Gumma. In addition, the association
has also spent substantial amounts in a
few government-owned grounds in which
other games are also played.
Currently, in 10 of the 12 districts of the state,
HPCA is running day cricket academies in
Chamba, Mandi, Bilaspur, Hamirpur, Una,
Solan, Kullu, Kangra, Sirmour and Shimla.
There are three residential academies,
at Una (under-19 boys), Amtar (under-16
boys) and Dharamshala (under-19 girls).
Before the year 2000, there was hardly any
coaching facility available in the state, and
this was reflected in the performance of
the teams, which hardly won any match
in the various tournaments organized by

ANDHRA
Established in 1953 under the presidentship
of the cricket legend, late Col. C.K. Nayudu,
Andhra Cricket Association had the
patronage of Maharajahs of Venkatagiri,
Vizianagram, and Pangidi, besides many
more cricket lovers and promoters.
ACAs jurisdiction remains the same 13
districts; so there is no problem about
the recent bifurcation of the state into
Telengana and Seemandhra.
The present administrative body of ACA,
which took over the reins in 2007, decided
that there should be a minimum of two
grounds either by ownership or long lease
with state-of-the-art infrastructure in all
the 13 districts.

The Final was played between Mumbai and Rest of India XI in Mumbai.
Rest of India XI won by 4 wickets.
Rest of India XI pulled off the third highest run chase in the history of Indias domestic cricket to beat Ranji Trophy
Champions, Mumbai by four-wickets in a nerve-wracking finish at the Cricket Club of India.
While Jay Bista (104) and Surya Kumar Yadav (156) helped Mumbai pile on 603 in the first innings, their bowling attack
did well and bowled ROI out for 306 to maintain the advantage. However, Jayant Yadav (four for 93) and Jaydev Unadkat
(three for 16) wrapped up the Aditya Tare-led team for 182 in the second innings.
Faced with the mammoth task, Faiz Fazal rose to the occasion to show the way for what had seemed like an improbable
chase. With 380 runs required on the final day, the rest of the line-up came to the party to take the team to an exciting
finish during the mandatory overs. While the Vidarbha batsmans (127) watchfully compiled century kept the side in the
game, Karun Nairs pacy (92) and Stuart Binnys quick-fire half-century helped ROI chase down 480. The previous best
chase for the title was in 1982-83, when ROI beat Delhi, chasing 421.
Z R IRANI CUP
This Cup was instituted in the year 1959-60.
The idea of a fixture between the Ranji Trophy Champions and the Rest of India was first mooted in 1941-42.
A five-day match played annually between the Ranji Trophy Champions of the preceding year and Rest of India team,
the tournament started in 1959-60 and was played at the end of the season. At some point of time, this tournament was
played as the season opener. Now the Irani Cup match is played immediately after the end of the Ranji Trophy tournament.

After conceding the first innings lead to Mumbai, UP chased down 444 runs to pull off a victory. Three of the top four
batsmen - Shivam Chaudhary (121), Madhav Kaushik (136) and Rinku Singh (130) helped the team to a comprehensive
win on the final day of the match. The visitors determinedly turned the game in their favour after beginning the chase in
the last session of the penultimate day. Coming in to bat at 33 for 1, Kaushik took the team within two runs of the target

stood out in Punjab's win, he was ably supported by Deepin Chitkaras in setting Mumbai an improbable target on the last
day of the four-day match.
Earlier, after electing to bat, valuable half-centuries from Shubman Gill, Abhishek, Chitkara and Sumit Sharma down the
order, Punjab posted 311 in the first innings. Abhishek then led the attack with a five-wicket haul to bowl Mumbai out for
174 even as Divyaansh Saxena (109) carried his bat.

to propel the team to 514 and set the opposition a 652-run target. Chasing the mountainous target, Mumbai were 220 for

In the year under consideration, the expenses on cricketing operations (excluding CLT20) has increased from Rs. 311.21
Crores to Rs. 370.04 Crores. The provision for gross revenue share payable to the players has gone up from Rs. 10.47 Crores
to Rs. 56.35 Crores. This increase is due to increase in gross revenue income.
In the year under consideration, the surplus of income over expenditure was Rs. 111.83 Crores as against Rs. 166.87 Crores
in the earlier year. This decrease in surplus is mainly due to distribution of additional amount due to associations, additional
payments to players and absence of income from CLT-20 Tournament, in spite of increase in total income as compared to
previous year.
In the current financial year 2016-17, the budgeted surplus is estimated at Rs. 509.13 Crores.
The following major decisions were taken during the year relating to Finance and Accounts:
Bank accounts of the Board are now operated jointly by two signatories.
BCCI has introduced player contracts for the Women Cricketers for the first time.
Additional payments to players amounting to Rs. 46.61 Crores to offset a lower share of the Gross Revenue to the
Infrastructure Subsidy limit has been increased from Rs. 50 Crores to Rs. 60 Crores.
Under the Infrastructure Subsidy scheme, the member units have claimed Rs. 824.12 Crores till 31st March 2016,

times attained by the Treasury are a matter of great pride for all of us. Mr. Santosh Rangnekar has joined the BCCI as its
Chief Financial Officer and brings considerable experience with him, and if early signs are anything to go by, he ought to bring
immense value to the Treasury office.
During the year under consideration, the annual gross receipts for the year ended 31st March 2016 from Mens' Senior
International Tours / Tournaments increased to Rs. 149.44 Crores as against Rs. 120.78 Crores last year. The increase is
due to increase in international fixtures on Indian soil during FY 2015-16.
Gross Media Rights and Franchisee Consideration receipts from IPL 2015 are Rs. 1069.75 Crores as against Rs. 999.6
Crores last year. The increase is due to the increase in media rights income.
I would like to record my gratitude to all the members of the Finance Committee Mr. Arun Thakur, Mr. K S Viswanathan,
Mr. Sourav Dasgupta, Mr. Jay Shah, Mr. Kishore Dewani and its Chairman, Mr. Jyotiraditya M. Scindia, for their guidance and
support through the year.
I would also like to thank the Office Bearers: Mr. Amitabh Chaudhary, Honorary Joint Secretary, Mr. Ajay Shirke, Honorary
Secretary and Mr. Anurag Thakur, President for their support, and also the Vice Presidents of the Board and Mr. Rajiv Shukla,
the Chairman of the IPL for their individual and collective wisdom and commitment towards the BCCI.
I would like to thank each and every member of the staff at the Treasurers office for their commitment and endless hours
of work put in at tremendous personal cost at times. I would also like to thank the entire staff at the BCCI head office and

Gross media rights income from BCCIs international fixtures has gone up from Rs. 388.80 Crores last year to Rs. 648 Crores
in the current year, due to increase in number of matches held in India.
Receipts from ICC/ACC share of distribution/Participation Fees were at Rs. 163.11 Crores compared to Rs. 54.15 Crores in
the previous year. This increased income is mainly due to receipt of funds for the ICC World Cup 2015 (ODI) held in Australia

NOTES TO ACCOUNTS
1.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (the Board), has been registered as a Society under the Societies Registration
Act, 1860 and the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975.
The Board is a full member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Asian Cricket Council (ACC).
The primary objects of the Board as per its Rules and Regulations are promoting, developing and controlling the
game of Cricket in India.
2.
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the stipulations of the Rules and Regulations of the
Board.
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, following the accrual concept of
accounting in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India (Indian GAAP), including
the applicable Accounting Standards, and on the basis of the decisions taken by the General Body, the Working
Committee, the Finance Committee, the IPL Governing Council and the CLT20 Governing Council.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the accounts are consistent with those followed in the
previous year.
b)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the Board to make estimates and assumptions
considered in the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including contingent liabilities) as of the date
of the financial statements and the reported income and expenses during the year. Such estimates are
necessarily based on assumptions regarding several factors. The Board believes that the estimates used in
the preparation of the financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Future results may vary from these
estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the year in which the estimate is revised and future years affected.
Key sources of judgments and estimation of uncertainty include useful lives of fixed assets, impairment of
fixed assets, provisioning for doubtful receivables, estimating the liabilities arising out of taxation, litigations,
regulatory/judicial proceedings, etc.
c)
The financial statements of the Board have been prepared in accordance with the Significant Accounting
Policies based on the Boards assessment of various matters relating to the internal investigations,
ongoing regulatory/judicial/legal proceedings, litigations, direct and indirect tax disputes, other regulatory
compliances, etc. which are significant to the Board. The final outcome of these matters, including the related
legal interpretations, where applicable, could have a significant impact on the financial statements and the
Boards evaluation of the same is very critical and fundamental to the preparation of the financial statements.
