Former India skipper Dilip Vengsarkar revealed how his tenure as India's chief selector came to an abrupt halt after just two years into his term. Vengsarkar succeeded Kiran More as chief selector in October 2006 before being replaced by Krishnamachari Srikkanth in September 2008. "There was an Emerging Players tour to Australia.

We included him in the Emerging Players team. I had gone to Brisbane to see those matches.
