President Durjoy, during the annual general meeting (AGM) of CWAB on Saturday, said he is ready to hand over the leadership to someone new. But no one was there to take their leadership, and now Durjoy and Debabrata have been re-elected to lead CWAB for the next four years.

Responding to Tanveer's call, the present cricketers raised their hands and Durjoy and Debabrata were elected again.
