Top 10 funny memes as BCCI sacks selection committee

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) sacked the national selection committee of Team India on Friday (November 18), which comprised Sunil Joshi, Harvinder Singh, Debasis Mohanty, and Chetan Sharma (chairman).

The selection panel has been operative for the last two years. During their tenure, they have made a few significant and controversial decisions, like removing Virat Kohli from the captaincy.

Following India's unceremonious semi-final exit in the recently concluded T20 World Cup 2022, the BCCI has reviewed the period and fired the selection panel. India also exited the T20 World Cup 2021 in the UAE last year during the term of the same committee.

Fans reacted positively to the latest developments in Indian cricket. They lauded the BCCI for ringing in the required changes by disbanding the selection panel after yet another disappointing World Cup loss.

A few Virat Kohli fans also took the opportunity and brutally trolled the Chetan Sharma-led committee for removing the captaincy of their favorite player last year.

Here is a collection of the best memes on the matter:
