The BCCI is reportedly considering replacing chief selector Ajit Agarkar when his current contract ends in September 2026. Agarkar’s tenure has come under scrutiny following controversy surrounding Rohit Sharma’s ODI future and India’s recent results. According to reports, the board is weighing former India batter VVS Laxman as a potential successor. Laxman currently heads cricket-related development at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru and has extensive experience in player development and coaching. While no final decision has been announced, the possible change could significantly reshape India’s selection strategy ahead of the 2027 ODI World Cup. (PC: X)
