Rohit Sharma staying in ODI plans adds twist as Ajit Agarkar’s BCCI exit looms, 2 ex-India stars emerge as replacements: Report
Rohit Sharma’s continued presence in India’s ODI plans adds intrigue as Ajit Agarkar’s BCCI exit reportedly looms, with two former India stars emerging as potential replacements.
Ajit Agarkar's BCCI chairmanship contract ends this month, with an extension reportedly unlikely, according to an NDTV report. Rohit Sharma's unexpected selection for the West Indies ODI series has added to speculation surrounding Agarkar's future. Rohit Sharma was not initially part of the 2027 World Cup plans but his strong performance against England changed the picture.
Agarkar's fate as the chair of BCCI's senior men's selection committee is set to be debated before the AGM on Friday. Former India stars Parthiv Patel and Pragyan Ojha have reportedly emerged as frontrunners to replace Agarkar. Rohit Sharma's ODI selection adds another layer to the Agarkar exit speculation. BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia denied any speculation that Rohit Sharma's career is ending soon and stated that he would continue playing as long as he remains in the selectors' plans.
