Pictured are four of the candidates, Suraj-Viswanathan (top-left), Ganesh-Sanap (top-right), Kuljit-Singh-Nijjar (bottom right) and Atul Rai (bottom-left).

These elections are for two different positions on the USA Cricket Board:

  1. Individual Director, which the individual members will be electing.
    and

• Stage 1: NGC collects and collates preliminary voter lists for the Club Director and Individual Director positions
• Stage 2: NGC publishes preliminary voter lists for peer review over a forthcoming two week period
