The BCCI is planning for the 2027 ODI World Cup in Africa and the next phase of the World Test Championship. The appointment will shape how the team identifies domestic talent and builds its squads, with interim chief selector Pragyan Ojha currently leading the committee.
Ajit Agarkar completed his tenure as the West Zone representative. The BCCI invited applications until October 14, with reports suggesting that Agarkar and the board did not renew their arrangement following disagreements over Rohit Sharma's selection.
Wasim Jaffer Could Challenge Pragyan Ojha for Chairman's Role
Wasim Jaffer represented India in 31 Tests, scoring 1,944 runs at an average of 34.10, including five centuries and a highest score of 212. He also played two ODIs, scoring 10 runs. His 31 Test appearances exceed the 24 Tests played by interim chief selector Pragyan Ojha.
The current panel also includes former India players RP Singh, Ajay Ratra, and Shiv Sunder Das. Ojha has been leading the committee on an interim basis since Agarkar's departure. The new appointment will determine who heads the panel for upcoming international assignments.
Wasim Jaffer's Domestic Record and Ramesh Powar's Coaching Experience
In List A cricket, he scored 4,849 runs in 118 matches at an average of 44.08, with 10 centuries. He also scored 616 runs in 23 T20 matches at a strike rate of 129.14, including six half-centuries.
Powar brings international playing and coaching experience to the race. He was reportedly considered a leading candidate for the junior selection committee chairman's position but opted to apply for the senior vacancy. Former India pacer Dodda Ganesh has emerged as a likely contender for the junior role.
