Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) President Shammi Silva has been replaced by Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi as the President of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC).
Silva, who was recently re-elected as SLC President, assumed charge as ACC Chair only three months ago in December 2024, taking over the role when India’s Jay Shah quit the presidency to take up his position as International Cricket Council (ICC) Chair.
“It has been a privilege to serve as President of the ACC,” Silva said, adding: “The steadfast commitment of our member boards working together has been pivotal in elevating the ACC’s stature across the region.”
Silva further thanked Shah and expressed confidence in Naqvi’s “capable leadership”.
Silva was elected uncontested to the SLC post for a fourth time during the SLC Annual General Meeting (AGM) held in Colombo on 31 March.
