BCCI secretary Jay Shah had mentioned after the board's AGM in Mumbai last month that a new selection committee will be formed. He had also mentioned that a Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) will formed, which would oversee the appointment procedure for the national selectors.
Mr Shah had also said that the CAC would review the candidates after a year and provide feedback to the board on their performance.
This meant that selecting the teams for the Bangladesh tour would be the last assignment for the outgoing selection committee.
The announcement comes in the aftermath of India's semifinal exit from the T20 World Cup.
