Former India captain and President of Cricket Association of Bengal Sourav Ganguly expressed his dissatisfaction over the MSK Prasad-led selection committee for selecting a different combination of players in all the three formats and advised them not to make everyone happy during selection rather choose the best for the country.
On Sunday, the selection committee selected players who will be touring the West Indies for 3 T20Is, 3 ODIs and 2 Test matches beginning 3 August. In order to give all the players a chance, the committee has selected different combinations for all formats and Ganguly is not happy with this.
Taking to Twitter on Wednesday, Ganguly said that the selection committee needs to be consistent with players in order to have a good team.
