VVS Laxman Will Attend All Senior Selection Committee Meetings for Better Communication: Saikia
The move aims to improve communication and give selectors accurate fitness and availability updates on injured players, Devajit Saikia said.
- On Tuesday, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia announced that VVS Laxman, head of the Centre of Excellence , will attend all senior selection committee meetings going forward.
- The decision follows reported miscommunication between Laxman and former chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar, which created issues concerning injured players and rehabilitation timelines.
- With India's 2027 ODI World Cup planning under pressure from repeated injuries, Laxman has already attended the T20I and India A selection meeting in Guwahati.
- India captain Shubman Gill previously cited scheduling and injuries as obstacles to fielding the preferred bowling lineup, saying, "It's been a little bit unfortunate that we have not been able to play the bowling lineup that we would like to."
- This structural change aims to eliminate gaps in data sharing regarding player health and recovery, enabling selectors to make more informed decisions with accurate COE information.
