BCCI to meet Ajit Agarkar after Sri Lanka series to discuss selector's future

The BCCI office bearers are set to meet selection committee chairman Ajit Agarkar after India's Test series against Sri Lanka to discuss his future, according to a report by The Indian Express. Agarkar will complete three years as chairman in September and is eligible for a one-year extension. The meeting comes amid differences of opinion between the selectors and the BCCI regarding Rohit Sharma's future. The selectors had reportedly informed Sharma that they were looking to replace him in the squad after the England series in July, but BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia said Sharma will continue to represent the country as long as he is in the scheme of things. The BCCI wants the selectors to assess Sharma's future on a series-by-series basis in the lead-up to the 2027 ODI World Cup. Former India head coach Ravi Shastri lauded Sharma for his century against England at Lord's, stating that the opener has shut everyone up on speculations about his future in the 50-over format.
