With Ajit Agarkar at the helm as the All-India Selection Committee chief, fresh names are expected to join the panel before the next season begins.
Former India spinner and IPL winner Pragyan Ojha has emerged as a strong contender to replace Sarath from the South Zone, while former Indian pacer Tinu Yohannan is also in the race.
On the other hand, Subrata Banerjee of the Central Zone is also likely to lose his selector’s chair in the coming weeks. Former India batter Amay Khurasia, who represented Madhya Pradesh and later made a mark in cricket administration and coaching, is seen as one of the frontrunners for this role.
BCCI plans big pay hike to lure top cricketers into selection panel
Meanwhile, the Board of Control for Cricket in India is also working on a significant pay hike for the Indian selectors. Currently, Ajit Agarkar earns an annual package of ₹3 crore, while the other four selectors take home only ₹90 lakh each.
The Indian cricket board wants to make the role more attractive and competitive, as well as attract the top-quality former cricketers for the selector’s job. The board wants them to be fully committed to the demanding task of talent scouting and team selection.
With lucrative opportunities in coaching and commentary often pulling players away, the BCCI is betting big on better pay to hire the best minds for a better future of Indian cricket. This proposal is expected to be discussed in the upcoming meetings, and an official announcement on the hike could be made before the new international season kicks off.
