Ganguly on BCCI committee to suggest resource utilisation

Mohali, Mar 10 (UNI) Ignored by the present group of selectors, Sourav Ganguly will now get an opportunity to suggest an overhaul of the existing selection procedure after BCCI today named the axed Team India captain as a special invitee to an 11-member resource utilisation committe.

The decision to constitute the commitee, headed by former board President IS Bindra, was taken in the February 21 meeting of the BCCI Executive Committee and other members of the committee include Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev, Shashank Manohar, Arun Jaitley, Ajay Shirke, KM Ramparsad, RS Shetty, MP Pandove, Niranjan Shah and N Srinivasan (convenor).

Apart from Ganguly, the list of special invitees includes Dilip Vengsarkar, Krishnamachari Srikkanth, Navjot Singh Sidhu, Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar.
