Sarandeep Singh, heading the DDCA's Cricket Advisory Committee, has firmly backed the association's recent appointments of coaches and selectors, rejecting criticism from within the organization's leadership structure.
The statement comes after Amit Grover, joint secretary of the DDCA, raised objections to the manner in which the positions were filled. Singh's defense underscores growing friction within the cricket body over governance and appointment procedures.
Speaking on the matter, Singh emphasized that the selection process followed established protocols and was conducted transparently. He asserted that the chosen candidates possessed the requisite credentials and experience for their respective roles, contrary to suggestions of irregularities.
The internal disagreement reflects broader concerns about administrative practices at the DDCA, one of the country's prominent state cricket associations. The matter assumes significance given the association's role in developing cricket talent in Delhi and overseeing domestic cricket operations in the region.
Both Singh and Grover's positions suggest the need for institutional clarity on appointment procedures and decision-making authority within the DDCA's administrative framework.
