Vikram Banerjee

Vikram Banerjee, a former left-arm spinner for Gloucestershire, led the ECB's project to bring private investment into the Hundred in 2024-25 in his role as the board's director of business operations. He joined the ECB in 2017, five-and-a-half years after he quit the professional game, initially in a strategy role working on the South Asian Action Plan and 'Inspiring Generations'.

Banerjee made his first-class debut in the Varsity match while studying at Cambridge University, and broke into the Gloucestershire side in 2006, having spent most of his teenage years playing age-group cricket for Warwickshire. He picked up 26 wickets in his first full Championship season but was considered most effective in limited-overs cricket.

He spent three weeks in South Africa with England's performance squad in the 2008/9 winter and was a solid performer across formats, but opportunities dried up in 2011 and he left Gloucestershire shortly before the end of the season, citing his desire to pursue a career away from the professional game.
