Anurag Thakur edged out Sanjay Patel by the barest of margins to become the BCCI's new secretary at its AGM in Chennai on Monday. Thakur, who was joint secretary in the N. Srinivasan-headed committee, will now work with new president Jagmohan Dalmiya. Thakur promised to give the BCCI a new image after the IPL 2013 scandal saw a few top Board officials being investigated for corruption. Thakur, a Member of Parliament, said the elected members will work as a team to give fans more confidence in the BCCI.
