MUMBAI: BCCI chief selector Chetan Sharma was caught in a controversy after he revealed selection matters during a sting operation conducted by a TV channel. Fans and BCCI are in shock after the revelation of secrets. Some top BCCI sources hint that Chetan is almost certain to lose his post. BCCI Secretary Jai Shah will announce the decision soon.
Chetan Sharma has also revealed about the future of Malayalee cricketer Sanju Samson. Ishaan Kishan and Shubman Gill's double centuries and good form are a threat to players including Sanju Samson. Chetan Sharma said the careers of Sanju, K L Rahul and Shikhar Dhawan are in danger.
Chetan Sharma reacted badly against the fans of Sanju Samson. Sharma said that if Sanju is not included in the team, people will turn against BCCI on Twitter like a swarm of wasps. The disclosure of secrets related to team selection has irked the BCCI. Chetan Sharma asked how can they take three wicket keepers in the team.
Chetan Sharma revealed that Rohit Sharma was rested in T20 for Gill and Hardik Pandya will soon be the captain in all three formats. It is revealed in the hidden camera operation that there was an ego problem between Ganguly and Kohli and due to this, Kohli lost his captaincy. Ganguly was not interested in Rohit.
