Ajit Agarkar is facing heavy criticism after Team India’s disastrous Test series against South Africa. Fans and analysts seem more frustrated with the Chief Selector than with Gautam Gambhir.
Social Media Turns Against Agarkar
People online are recalling decisions they believe damaged the team. Many mention Agarkar’s move to cancel Shreyas Iyer’s BCCI central contract despite his strong performances.
Criticism Over Selection Choices
Agarkar is often accused of picking IPL stars ahead of proven domestic players. Fans believe this approach may work in limited overs but not in Test cricket.
Sai Sudharsan Debate
His call to include Sai Sudharsan, who averages 30.33 in Test cricket, has sparked anger. Supporters feel more deserving domestic players were ignored.
Concerns About Workload
Fans also point out that while he prefers IPL talent, he pushes selected players to play domestic matches. They believe this adds workload and leads to burnout.
Questions About Team Travel
Another talking point is his frequent travel with the national team. Critics say he has no official role on tour and should focus on scouting domestic talent.
Public Demands Change
With the team struggling, frustration is at its peak. Many are calling for major changes in the selection committee and want Agarkar to step down.
