Dilip Vengsarkar criticises Ajit Agarkar panel for selecting team without watching local matches
Dilip Vengsarkar has lashed out on Ajit Agarkar and other Mumbai selectors, by stating that they have no right to act as selectors if they don't pay heed to the local matches. Referring to the careless gesture of the selectors, Vengsarkar believes the efficient players will be overlooked.
As Ajit Agarkar and the panel of Mumbai selectors went on to select players for the Mumbai fitness camp, there have been allegations that they have not followed the local matches to analyse the efficiency of players in top form. A list of 27 probable candidates has been given for attending the off-season camp by Ajit Agarkar and company. Parsee Gymkhanaâs cricket secretary and vice president Khodadad Yazdegardi
Yazdegardi has involved 30 signatures from the members of Mumbai Cricket Association to gather a Special General Meeting (SGM) last week, seeking to remove the selectors to the Committee of Administrators. Former Indian skipper Dilip Vengsarkar has also criticised Ajit Agarkar and the selectors because of their careless act.
âIf the selectors donât have time to watch local matches, they shouldnât be there,
âSince the players have performed and theyâve been overlooked, it shows the selectors in poor light, because if they donât have time to watch (local) matches, they shouldnât be there. As simple as that. It isnât fair for the players. In fact, theyâre playing with the careers of the players. If they donât get an appropriate opportunity as per their performances, because the selectors havenât watched them, itâs very unfortunate indeed. It'sâ very important for the players to get an opportunity at the right time. Otherwise, the players will feel let down,â he said.
Ajit Agarkar and team made an addition of seven more players in the Mumbai fitness on Monday, stating the decision taken was independent of any influence, referring to Yazdegardi campaign. However, the sources report that the decision was taken last week. Nilesh Kulkarni, Jatin Paranjpe, and Sunil More, former Indian players share the selection panel with Ajit Agarkar.
