BCCI Cricket Advisory Committee to be expanded

BCCI’s President Anurag Thakur suggested an expansion of the Cricket Advisory Committee at the recently-concluded BCCI conclave in Dharamshala. The committee, which was recently tasked with selecting the Indian Cricket Team’s new coach could soon undergo a chance, that would see it being expanded into a High Performance Committee, if reports are to believed. If the change does take place,

it would see a major expansion in personnel and scope, the details of which would be further discussed at the BCCI’s annual general meeting to be held in September. The CAC currently comprises of Indian cricket team legends Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman & Sourav Ganguly. "There have been preliminary discussions about expanding the scope of the Cricket Advisory Committee," a source was reported saying to The Hindu on the 5th of July."One of the proposals is to merge the Technical Committee and the CAC into a High Performance Committee. Whether the new committee will be additionally handed over the responsibility of liaising with the India and India-A teams is still not clear," he added.
