Will Ajit Agarkar's fate be decided soon?
According to reports, BCCI will meet Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar after the Indian team's Sri Lanka tour. Meanwhile, the future of Agarkar is likely to be discussed. Agarkar's three-year term as selection committee chairman will end in September and his tenure can be extended by one year.
According to reports, the meeting took place amid differences between the BCCI and the selection committee over Rohit Sharma's future. The selectors had already informed Rohit Sharma that they were considering dropping him from the squad after the England series, while BCCI secretary Devjit Saikia had said that as long as Rohit was part of the plan, he would continue to lead the country.
The report also claims that the BCCI wants the selection committee to decide Rohit Sharma's future on a series-by-series basis till the 2027 ODI World Cup. Saikia's statement angered the selection committee. The meeting is likely to discuss Agarkar's future, as well as the controversy surrounding Rohit Sharma's last match.
