Every time the team lost, there were criticisms about the selection process. Thus, the committee consisting of four members including Chetan was removed. After this, BCCI has taken another important decision. It has been reported that BCCI has planned to appoint three captains for three formats of cricket namely T20, ODI and Test. 

BCCI will soon form a new selection committee and discuss who should be given the responsibility of the new leadership. Currently, Rohit Sharma is leading the team in all formats. On Friday, BCCI invited applications for the appointment of members of the selection committee of the senior men’s team. November 28 is the last day to apply.

The name of the new leader is likely to be announced after the completion of this process. Hardik Pandya is currently the captain of the Indian team for the ongoing T20 cricket tour in New Zealand.

Shastri says that there is nothing wrong in choosing Hardik Pandya as the next captain of India.
