Mithun Manhas: New BCCI President Mithun Manhas in the news due to old photo with Virender Sehwag's wife
A name in Indian cricket that did not shine much on the field, but has left its mark in leadership, consistency, and management, finally achieving the position of head of the country's highest cricket institution. Yes, we are talking about Mithun Manhas. After Roger Binny, his appointment as BCCI president was announced, leading to a flood of discussions on social media.
However, the reason Manhas is in the spotlight is not just his new status. An old photo has suddenly changed the direction of the wind. In this photo, he is seen with none other than former Indian opener Virender Sehwag's wife, Aarti. Following this, rumors of an affair have surged on the internet.
Distance between Sehwag and Aarti, and doubts deepen due to photo
There have been discussions on various social media platforms about the strained relationship between Sehwag and his wife Aarti Ahlawat over the past few months. Both have rarely been seen together at public events. Amidst this, an old photo of Manhas and Aarti went viral again. As a result, rumors of the end of Sehwag-Aarti's relationship and an affair with Mithun Manhas began to circulate on social media. Currently, there has been no official response to this matter, but it cannot be denied that the discussion has gained momentum.
Mithun Manhas's international cricket career was not very remarkable. However, in domestic cricket, he played 157 first-class matches for Delhi, scoring more than 9700 runs. His experience in the Ranji Trophy, team leadership, and roles in training brought his name forward in cricket administration. Experts believe that his selection as BCCI president might have been supported by some political backing and organizational trust.
It is said that Manhas's total wealth is estimated to be around 10 to 12 crore rupees by 2025. His financial position has been strengthened by the remuneration from domestic cricket, IPL contracts, and the money earned as a coach and advisor. He played for IPL teams like Chennai Super Kings, Pune Warriors, and Delhi Capitals. Additionally, he has worked with the Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association and participated in several important BCCI meetings.
Jammu's Player, the Pinnacle of Indian Cricket
Born on October 12, 1979, Mithun Manhas is the first cricketer from Jammu and Kashmir to be elected as the BCCI President. This election has been historic for the state. In his 20-year cricket journey, he has witnessed many ups and downs. It is due to his leadership qualities and perspective outside the field that he has become the president of the country's largest sports organization today.
