Cricket Canada Elects Arvinder Khosa as President, Signals Governance Reset

Amid ongoing controversies related to transparency, accountability, and fairness in national team selections, Cricket Canada has announced a leadership change, marking what it describes as the beginning of a new phase in the administration of the sport.

At a Special General Meeting, members elected Arvinder Khosa of Surrey as the organization’s new president by an overwhelming majority. The newly elected leadership team is expected to guide Cricket Canada through a period of transition, with an emphasis on strengthening governance and supporting the sport’s development nationwide.

In a notification posted on its website, Cricket Canada described Khosa as a highly respected cricket administrator and community leader from Surrey, British Columbia, noting his long-standing involvement in the game.

Khosa assumed office immediately following his election. Under his leadership, the organization aims to enhance governance standards, improve stakeholder engagement, and build a stronger institutional foundation, according to the notification.

He brings experience from across the Canadian cricket ecosystem, including his work with Cricket BC, where he has contributed to both grassroots development and broader organizational initiatives.

“This is an important moment for cricket in Canada,” said Khosa. “We are focused on strengthening the organization and working with our members and partners to support the game across the country, with an emphasis on integrity, accountability, and continued growth.”

Paramjit Shahi, a community leader from Winnipeg, Manitoba, has been elected as Secretary. 

Shahi has been actively involved in advancing cricket development, including infrastructure and youth programming efforts.

Cricket in Canada continues to grow, supported by increasing participation, ongoing investment in national programs, and rising interest in developing domestic talent. The organization has indicated that it will continue to focus on sustaining this momentum and advancing the sport across the country.
