After voting in their respective state associations, cricketers are now gearing up to vote in the Indian Cricketers' Association, the first-ever players body that will represent them in the BCCI Apex Council and the IPL Governing Council.
While over 1,200 cricketers (international and first-class — men and women) from India have registered themselves, some high profile names are missing from the electoral list that was finalised.
Mumbai, which has a rich legacy of producing cricketers, only 86 first-class cricketers registered before the September 21 deadline. From the 86 cricketers registered, 34 are men. The most notable Mumbai names not on the electoral list are Sunil Gavaskar, Dilip Vengsarkar, Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan. Other famous names who don't figure in the list are: Sandeep Patil, Vinod Kambli and Ramesh Powar.
Elsewhere, popular cricketers like Sourav Ganguly (Bengal), Yuvraj Singh (Punjab) and Bishen Singh Bedi (Delhi) are also missing from the list.

GK Pillai, chairman of the Supreme Court-appointed steering committee, said player registration is an ongoing process.
