The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had its 95th Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the board's headquarters in Mumbai. After the meeting’s conclusion, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia provided an update on the future of the current chief selector, Ajit Agarkar, whose tenure, after three years of service, is set to end in September. He has the option of an extension for a year.
Ajit Agarkar was appointed as the chief selector ahead of the ODI World Cup 2023 in July. Since then, under his tenure, there have been some tough and controversial decisions that have been taken, but India has also won three ICC trophies (T20 World Cup 2024, Champions Trophy 2025, and T20 World Cup 2026).

Apart from that, BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia provided an update on reports that the Indian team had urged the board to change the venue of the fourth India vs Australia Test of the BGT 2027 series from Ranchi to another location.
He said while speaking to the media (as quoted by PTI), "There are still 6-7 months left. Please wait for a while. We will take a call. We don't have any such request or proposal that there are some issues regarding Ranchi Test."
