Speaking to the media, BCCI Secretary Jai Shah said, “You can read all the laws. I only coordinate the meetings. Such decisions are in the hands of Ajit Agarkar. It was also his decision to release Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer from the contract. The two players did not give importance to domestic cricket. So they took this decision.' My job is only to implement the decisions. Now a new player has entered the team in the form of Sanju Samson. This decision is also Agarkar's.

Jai Shah had a discussion with Iyer and Kishan

When Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan were dropped from the Indian team. Jai Shah had held discussions with both the players when both were subsequently dropped from the Central Contracts list. Giving a statement in this regard, Jai Shah said, “Yes, I spoke to both of them. These reports were also in the media.”

Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer have performed well in IPL 2024. Still, his return to the Indian team seems far away. He was not included in the T20 World Cup squad. The selectors ignored Ishan Kishan and chose Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson as wicketkeeper batsmen. So Shreyas Iyer bats in the middle order, but the middle order slot is already filled in the team”.
