The new office-bearers would be announced at 11am tomorrow by the election observer, Manisha Nanda, a retired IAS officer. With Arun Dhumal set to be the next president of HPCA, the control of the cricket body remains with the family of former chief minister Prem Kumar Dhumal. His son Anurag Thakur had been at the helm since 2000. Thakur had to quit the post of HPCA president after the Supreme Court mandated the implementation of the Lodha committee recommendations for all state cricket units.
