PCB Considers Younis Khan and Mohammad Hafeez for Chief Selector Role

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text dp_text_size=”size-4″]Today, at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, former Pakistani cricketers Younis Khan, Mohammad Hafeez, Wahab Riaz, and Sohail Tanvir met with Zaka Ashraf, the Chairman of the PCB Management Committee.

Zaka Ashraf is actively seeking a new chief selector with a comprehensive understanding of the contemporary demands of cricket. In the wake of Inzamam-ul-Haq’s resignation as chief selector, Tauseef Ahmed, a former Test cricketer, assumed the responsibility of selecting the team for the Australia Test tour. However, the PCB has disbanded the selection committee led by the interim chief selector, Tauseef Ahmed.

Currently, there is contemplation about appointing either Younis Khan or Mohammad Hafeez as the new chief selector. The newly formed selection committee will deliberate on the composition of the Test squad from November 20 to 24, coinciding with the establishment of a training camp that will invite players who have excelled in domestic cricket.

Following the Australian Test tour, Pakistan is scheduled to play 19 T20Is leading up to the T20 World Cup in June, which will take place in the West Indies and the USA.

It’s worth noting that Pakistan secured their only T20 World Cup victory in 2009 under the leadership of Younis Khan, while Mohammad Hafeez has an impressive captaincy record in T20 cricket.

As the decision-making process unfolds, an official announcement regarding the new selection committee is anticipated soon. The PCB is committed to ensuring that the appointed chief selector is well-prepared to navigate the challenges presented by the dynamic landscape of modern-day cricket.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
