(Source: File) Venkatesh Prasad of late shared a cold relationship with the BCCI mandarins. (Source: File)Former India seamer Venkatesh Prasad on Friday tendered his resignation from the post of chairman, junior national selection committee, less than a month after the country won the U-19 World Cup. Prasad, who has worked as the head of the junior national selection committee for 30 months, of late shared a cold relationship with the BCCI mandarins. Recently, after the Indian junior team won the U-19 World Cup, the selection panel was not given any cash reward. However, many believe that Prasad had irked a senior office bearer and that is why the junior selection committee never got cash award after the World Cup triumph.
