Is BCCI Making a Mess Of Selection Process?

The CEO of the BCCI, Rahul Johri sent out a detailed clarification on Sunday denying a news report that the three-member Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) of the Board had asked to be compensated for their meetings to select a head coach for the Indian cricket team.

Though a lot of speculations are going around the India Coach Selection, the CAC committee has said it would take long to decide and Kumble may continue post Champions Trophy, until West Indies tour.

“BCCI wishes to clarify that there has been no such claim and the story carried by the newspaper is totally baseless and devoid of facts. The contents of this article are malicious and such attempts to dilute and misrepresent the continued contribution of these former legends of Indian Cricket are totally incorrect and unfounded,” Johri wrote.

In London, a member of the advisory committee woke up to this piece of news saying “thank you for spoiling such a fine day”.

The fact is that the BCCI CoA has made a mess of the process of coach selection. On May 25, when the BCCI sent out a statement that applications were being called for to select the new coach of the Indian team, the board failed to clarify, given that Kumble has been successful.A top BCCI official had stated at that time:

“The due process is being followed”.

The CoA has learnt, wants a contract to be signed by the members of the advisory committee identifying their roles. When the BCCI old guard was in place, the committee was introduced as an honorary one to help out the BCCI in matters related to cricket and nothing was mentioned in strict notice
