Before the second ODI against South Africa on Wednesday, the Board of Control for Cricket in India BCCI reportedly called a meeting with Indias head coach, Gautam Gambhir, the head of the selection committee, Ajit Agarkar, and several other high-ranking officials to urgently discuss a few crucial issues. The news coincides with speculation about the future of Team India mainstays Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, both of whom have returned to form with outstanding performances in recent games.
The conversation is expected to include head coach Gautam Gambhir, national selection committee chairman Ajit Agarkar, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia, and joint secretary Prabhtej Singh Bhatia, according to a report in Sportstar. The article did not specify whether Mithun Manhas, the recently appointed head of the BCCI, would be present. Senior players like Kohli, Rohit, and others seem unlikely to be invited, given that the meeting is scheduled for match day.
According to a senior BCCI official quoted in the report, the purpose of the meeting is to ensure selection consistency within the team while keeping long-term development and overall success in mind.
