BCCI to Decide on Ajit Agarkar's Future as India Chief Selector

BCCI to Decide on Ajit Agarkar's Future as India Chief SelectorPreviousNext

Ajit Agarkar's future as India's chief selector is under review as his current term expires in September. The BCCI plans a meeting with Agarkar to discuss a possible one-year extension, with support existing within the board and team. However, no final decision has been made, and Agarkar's willingness to continue is also a factor. His tenure has seen significant squad changes and some criticism, including debates over Rohit Sharma's ODI future. The board aims for clarity ahead of upcoming international tournaments.
