Dinesh Karthik suggested friction between head coach Gautam Gambhir and chief selector Ajit Agarkar over selection priorities.
India lost T20I series 2-0 to Ireland and 4-0 to England in the UK, intensifying scrutiny on team management.
Karthik said Agarkar has long-term plans while Gambhir wants to win every game, causing selection confusion.
Handling of Sanju Samson and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi highlighted inconsistent selection decisions.
Karthik argued India's squad depth adds pressure on players, requiring urgent rectification.
