Captain and coach should have a say in team selection: Shastri
The Hindu
Head coach is part of selection panel in Australia and England
Former India head coach Ravi Shastri believes that the coach and the captain should have a say in the national team selection.
India captain sits in the selection committee meeting to give his inputs but decision making power lies with the five-member selection panel while the coach doesn't have a seat on the table.
"I think it is extremely important that the captain and the coach should have a say in team selection. I think going forward, both should officially have a say. Especially if the coach is experienced enough, like I was and now how Rahul (Dravid) is," Shastri told Star Sports.
