Chetan Sharma, the current Chairman of the National Selection Committee, has his fate hanging in the balance as a result of a string of sub-par performances of the Indian cricket team at the recent multi-nation events.
The BCCI is looking to rejig the senior selection panel after the T20 World Cup. That could mean an end to the former Indian pacer's tenure as Chairman. A senior BCCI official also stated that many people were not very happy with Sharma at the moment.
The Indian team, which is currently in Australia for the T20 World Cup hasn't won a major tournament since the Champions Trophy 2013, held in England. The Indian team has been inconsistent with their recent performances. The team's performance at the current T20 World Cup could prove pivotal in changing his fortune.
The current chairman will still be holding his post till the BCCI selects the new Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC). With Debashish Mohanty's tenure also coming to an end in the selection panel, it will be interesting to see who will be selected in his place with Shiv Sunder Das and Deep Dasgupta emerging as two possible candidates.
