Surprised? Well, so are the officials of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), when the BCCI President Jagmohan Dalmiya asked them “Why has Sachin Tendulkar not been included in the squad.” Apparently, Dalmiya made this comment when the board presented him the list of players selected for the recently concluded Sri Lankan tour.
It is well known that Sachin Tendulkar retired from all forms of cricket in 2013. And when probed further, it was learnt that Dalmiya has been suffering from amnesia, a neurological disease which makes people suffer from loss if memory. In another proof of his illness, BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur had to repeatedly prompt Dalmiya to read out what’s written, in a recent board meeting.
Apparently, the board members, even though are finding it hard to grapple with their president’s disease, they are in no position to find his replacement until his tenure expires in the year 2017.
It is well known that Jagmohan Dalmiya succeeded N Srinivasan as the President of BCCI.
