Chief selector Dilip Vengsarkar's meeting with Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) chief Sharad Pawar has been rescheduled to next week, and its likely to be held on December 14 as per the report by a close source to Vengsarkar. Colonel attended the last meeting of selection committee on December 5 in Bangalore which picked the team for the final test against Pakistan and the 24 probables for the forthcoming India-Australia series.
Earlier, Vengsarkar came back from Kolkata in the middle of the second Test after his demands for the scrapping of the seven-point guidelines issued to the selectors, that included a ban on them from writing columns and talking to the media, were not accepted by the Board. He also dashed off a letter to the BCCI stating his position not to attend the meeting unless his demands were met, but the Board did not budge from its stand.
Hectic parleys over phone with Pawar on the eve of the selection meeting, after the board chief's softening of the stand on the issue, enabled Vengsarkar to make up his mind to proceed to Bangalore and chair the meeting.
