The Odisha Cricket Association Thursday nominated tainted and jailed former supremo Asirbad Behera's son Sanjay Behera as its representative at the BCCI AGM on October 23.

Sanjay has recently been elected secretary of the association as his father, who has been arrested by the CBI for his active connection with a chit-fund scam, voted from jail.

The Special General Meeting of OCA held under the chairmanship of Pankaj Lochan Mohanty, president, OCA, was attended by 57 out of 73 members. The meeting was held in Cuttack.
