PCB appoints Inzamam Ul Haq as new “Chief Selector”

Pakistan cricket board (PCB) has made it official as Chairman PCB Shaharyar and Inzamam made a joint statement in which the chairman announced Inzamam’s name as the new head of the selection committee.

Inzamam said that he is happy and thankful to PCB for giving him the opportunity to serve Pakistan cricket. Inzamam Ul Haq will also be given, an integral part in the selection of the other members of the committee.

Already he has inducted Toseef Ahmad, Wajahat Ullah Wasti, and Wasim Haider as the new members of the selection committee.

Inzamam said that he will make sure each decision made by him and other members of the committee should base on merit. He said that there are problems in Pakistan cricket and these are hard times, but together they can all come out of it.

Inzamam Ul Haq was the prime choice for the role, but he was bound to the contract he made with the Afghanistan cricket board as their head coach. Upon the request of Inzamam and Shaharyar Khan, the head of the Afghanistan cricket board Stanikzai cancelled the contract with immediate effect. It seems that PCB now wants some modern day players to take part in the selection of the players.
