Chennai, Mar 2 (IBNS): Veteran cricket administrator Jagmohan Dalmiya has returned as the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president after a decade, replacing N Srinivasan who is facing legal blows and criticism over the IPL scam, according to media reports.

He was elected in the board's annual general meeting in Chennai on Monday.

Anurag Thakur, who was joint-secretary earlier, is the new secretary as he beat Sanjay Patel 15-14.

Media reports said TC Matthews is one of the five vice-presidents.

Amitabh Chaudhary  from Jharkhand and Anirudh Chaudhary from Haryana are joint-secretary and Treasurer respectively.

Dalmiya, the current president of Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), had earlier emerged as consensus candidate from N. Srinivasan’s camp.
