The shocking decision came a few days after the Indian cricket team was knocked out of the T20 World Cup 2022. The Men in Blue were knocked out of the marquee event after enduring a heartbreaking 10-wicket defeat at the hands of England. During Chetan Sharma’s tenure, team India had also failed to reach the knock-out stage in the 2021 edition of the T20 World Cup and lost the World Test Championships final.

Chetan (North zone), Harvinder Singh (Central Zone), Sunil Joshi (South Zone), and Debasish Mohanty (East Zone) have had the shortest stint as senior national selectors in recent times. Some of them were appointed in 2020 and some in 2021.
