While discussing with Cheteshwar Pujara on the YouTube Rahane channel, he stressed that it is important to have selectors who understand the evolving nature of a modern cricket and can help players play without fear.The aim of the Rahane design is to modernize the selection process in the Indian cricket, especially at home level. They believe that selectors who retired in the last five to eight years would be better equipped to understand the requirements of the current cricket.Current regulations of the Criket Board (BCCI) allow retirement crickets with more than 10 first experiences with the first matches to become selectors of the State Association after a five -year cooling period. The National Selection Commission has stricter requirements, including the compulsory cooling period.“Players should not be afraid of selectors,” Rahane said during the discussion. “We should have selectors who recently left the top cricket, those who retired five or six years ago. Seven years ago. Because the way cricket evolves is very important that the mentality and thinking of selectors coincide and maintain a step.Rahane further elaborated his vision for the selection of cricket in India. “We do not want to make decisions based on how cricket played 20-30 years ago. With formats such as T20 and IPL, it is important to understand the style of modern cricket players. I believe selectors should be wherever possible to be individuals from all states and players should be playing with freedom and playing a fearless cricket,” he said.Cheteshwar Pujara, who left in August, offered a more balanced view of this matter. According to the current rules, Pujar would have to wait until 2030 to be eligible as a voter.“In large states, it can be implemented because they have so many options. So wherever possible, I agree that it can be implemented, but that means that every past cricket, who has a great record and now wants to be a selector, should be deprived of a chance because he retired,” said Pujara.
