Agarkar's World Tour vs. Local Duty
29 Nov, 2025
Summary
- Ajit Agarkar frequently traveled overseas with India in the last year.
- Concerns raised about his attendance at local Ranji Trophy matches.
- Past accusations of neglecting local games led to resignation.
In the last twelve months, Ajit Agarkar has been a consistent presence on India's international tours, including trips to Australia and Dubai. His frequent travel, even taking a fellow selector on multiple occasions, stands in contrast to concerns about his engagement with domestic cricket.
Specifically, there are questions regarding Agarkar's attendance at Ranji Trophy matches. This pattern of perceived neglect of local games is not new, as similar accusations were leveled against him during his time as a Mumbai selector.
These past criticisms reportedly culminated in his resignation from the Mumbai selector role, highlighting a recurring theme of scrutiny over his dedication to grassroots cricket versus his international commitments.
