Former India keeper MSK Prasad has been named chief selector of the Indian cricket team.

He was retained in the senior selection panel, a decision made at the BCCI's 87th Annual General Meeting in Mumbai on Wednesday.

The Indian cricket board also named a five-man selection panel as opposed to the Lodha panel's order to appoint three selectors.

Last year, Prasad was appointed as selector in place of Roger Binny from South Zone.
