CAC meet on Dec 29; Chetan Sharma likely to make the cut

New Delhi, Dec 27: The Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC), comprising Ashok Malhotra, Sulakshana Naik and Jatin Paranjpe, is likely to meet in Mumbai on December 29 to interview the prospective candidates for the new national selection panel.
It is understood that BCCI are in the process of shortlisting the names for interview and last committee’s chairman Chetan Sharma has a bright chance of being in the pruned list along with his central zone colleague Harvinder Singh.
“If all goes well, on December 29, the CAC is supposed to meet physically in Mumbai and interview the shortlisted names,” a BCCI source in the know-how of things told PTI on condition of anonymity.
Meanwhile, it is understood that Chetan and his committee has been given another week’s extension and asked to cover this round of Ranji Trophy games.
Chetan and his colleague Harvinder were in Delhi to watch the home team’s match against Tamil Nadu, while Sunil Joshi is in Hyderabad watching the game between Assam and Hyderabad.
“They were informed only yesterday that they need to cover this round,” the source said.
However, it is understood that both Chetan and Harvinder are likely to be interviewed again by the CAC and both might continue from their respective zones. (PTI)
