Ravi Shastri: The one who is not needed also remains… Ravi Shastri exposes the selection meeting

Ravi Shastri’s tenure with the Indian team came to an end after the 2021 T20 World Cup. After this there were quite a few months in Indian cricket. Kohli resigned from the captaincy of the T20 team and was subsequently removed from the ODI and Test captaincy. There was a lot of talk about the relationship between Kohli and the then BCCI President Saurabh Ganguly. There were also reports that the BCCI President used to be present in the team selection meetings as well.

A long time has passed since this matter, but Ravi Shastri has now spoken openly about the selection meeting. He has told how the selection meeting was during his tenure. The former head coach said that he was never a part of any selection meeting but also revealed that those meetings were sometimes attended by people who were ‘not expected’ to be there.
