The post has been vacant since April when former India wicketkeeper Pandit was asked to resign because of his association with Rajasthan C A as Director of its cricket academy. In the past, Contractor has been associated with the National Cricket Academy, Bangalore as a Talent Resources Development Officer (TRDO) for West Zone. He was replaced by former opening batsman — the late Ashok Mankad.
