Former India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin commended Ajit Agarkar for his tenure as chairman of the BCCI selection committee. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Ashwin highlighted Agarkar's ability to make difficult decisions with honesty and consideration for the future of Indian cricket. During his time, Agarkar was responsible for key calls such as gradually phasing out senior players, including Ashwin.
Ashwin acknowledged that some players face criticism from fans, but emphasized that the job of a selector is challenging. He also noted that Agarkar's decision to pick Jaiswal over Rohit Sharma was based on the future of the team, not personal animosity. With Agarkar's term set to end on October 4, 2026, the BCCI is reportedly not seeking an extension and is searching for his successor, with Parthiv Patel and Pragyan Ojha as leading candidates.
