Cricket News: Indian team selection for WI tour postponed to Sunday

The Committee of Administrators has decided to change the age-old rule of the Board of Control for Cricket in India Secretary convening the selection committee meeting of the Indian team by handing the responsibility to the chief selector - currently M.S.K. Prasad. And that has seen the selection meeting to pick the team for the West Indies tour get postponed to Sunday. The directive of the CoA has led to a complete change of plan and that had led to a delay in the process. The CoA has decided that neither any officer bearer nor the CEO shall attend any Cricket Committee meetings henceforth. In fact, as of now, the Selection Committee had to keep the Secretary in the loop for any replacement sought or for posting of selectors to watch any game. The CoA has made it clear that the Selection Committee doesn't need to do so anymore. (ENDS)
