Ajit Agarkar became BCCI chief selector in July 2023, and since then his team-selection choices have prompted public debate. Multiple reports highlight selections including Mohammed Shami, Sarfaraz Khan and Abhimanyu Easwaran as decisions that have “raised eyebrows.” While the articles discuss the controversy around specific player picks, they also point to team performance during Agarkar’s tenure. India reach the final of the ODI World Cup, win two T20 World Cups, and also secure titles such as the Asia Cup and the Champions Trophy. The coverage frames the debate around whether the selections were optimal, but it does not change the basic timeline: Agarkar’s appointment precedes a period in which India win several major international trophies. Overall, the sources present both sides—questions around particular squad calls alongside the broader record of results—without attributing outcomes to a single selection decision.
