MUMBAI: The BCCI on Thursday put out an advertisement on its website for the position of member of men’s selection committee. The selected candidate is likely to be the new chief selector of the committee, since previous chief selector Chetan Sharma was from the North Zone.
As per the criteria, the interested candidate should have a) played seven Tests or b) 30 First-Class matches, or c) 10 ODIs and 20 First-Class matches. He should have retired from the game at least five years previously. The last date to apply for the post is June 30.
Interestingly, at a time when there are calls for a transition in the Indian team, the new selector will be required to “plan and prepare a strong bench strength for the senior national team,” and “appoint a captain for the team in each format.”
The new selector will also be required to “address the media on team selection as and when instructed by BCCI.” Since Chetan Sharma’s exit, no BCCI selector has addressed a press conference to explain the decisions of the selectors.
