Internet Desk: BCCI Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Rahul Johri will talk to India skipper Virat Kohli in Jamaica to get his feedback on the appointment of the new head coach of the team.
Johri is expected to reach in Kingston on Wednesday evening to have a thorough discussion with Kohli regarding the appointment of the coach and other support staffs.
"Yes, Rahul has left for Jamaica with permission of the Committee of Administrators (COA). He has been instructed with the task of getting feedback from the captain and the team. The team's feedback will then be passed to the (CAC) to take all parameters into account," a BCCI official privy to the development said.
A few days ago, Kohli had said that he will only air his view if the BCCI asks for it.
"From a personal point of view, I can't pinpoint anything or give details. We as a team, contrary to a lot of perceptions, only voice our opinions when asked by the BCCI for suggestions. So that is something we have always gone through as a process and that's something we respect as a team," Kohli had said during an interaction with media during the Antigua leg of the series.
But questions are also being raised whether taking feedback from the team tantamount to showing CAC comprising Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman in poor light.
The move according to many is another indicator that it's a formality before Ravi Shastri takes over the coaching role.
