LAHORE: Paksitan Cricket Board (PCB) on Sunday stated that the board is considering the names of former captains Wasim Akram and Misbahul Haq for the cricket committee.
According to the reports, PCB Chairman Ehsan Mani has consulted with the patron Prime Minister Imran Khan for the inclusion of these two legendary Pakistani cricketers in the committee.
The reports further stated that there is complete confidence over the names of Wasim and Misbah as cricket players from 70s and 90s will also be included in the committee.
Former captain and coach Intikhab Alam is another strong contender for the committee, the reports suggested.
Earlier, former cricketer and commentator Ramiz Raja stated that a cricket committee in Pakistan is “need of the hour”. Talking about the urgent measures and steps needed to be taken for the management and administration departments of the cricketing board, Raja suggested a cricket committee, consisting of former and current players.
“Such committee should be given the task of taking care of the domestic cricket as well as of improving the Think Tank responsible for making crucial decisions,” Raja said.
