Agarkar applied a day before the deadline on Thursday. The 45-year-old will be a leading contender for the post of chairman of selectors. Agarkar has played 26 Tests and 191 ODIs for India. If Agarkar is chosen, the panel would have two selectors from West Zone, with Salil Ankola being the other one from this zone. The other three selectors are Shiv Sunder Das, S Sharath, and Subroto Banerjee.
