Krishnamachari Srikkanth likes to talk. He is friendly and unlike most selection committee chairmen, doesn’t present a grim face. He greets you with a warm smile and may even ask you to sit down for a cup of coffee if you are not asking selection-related questions.

But if you are from the media and meeting the chief selector of India, what else to you ask? HT asked him to pick his favourite T20 players, from his era and also from the current one.
