PCB’s Board of Governors reject Wasim Khan’s appointment as Managing Director

Five of the seven Board of Governors on Wednesday presented a resolution against the appointment of Managing Director of the PCB, Wasim Khan, declaring it ‘null and void’.

According to Dawn, the resolution moved by the BoG read: "Appointment of managing director [Wasim Khan] along with the creation of the unconstitutional post of MD PCB is hereby declared null and void."

The resolution also disapproved PCB’s plans to cut down the number of teams in first-class cricket and demanded a formation of Domestic Cricket Restructuring Committee (DCRC) to make proposals for the revamping of Domestic cricket within next 10 days.

“Any move to abolish departments or regions in the process of restructuring domestic cricket is also rejected and termed as unacceptable."

‘Must not get derailed by personal agendas’ – Mani

The PCB chairman Ehsan Mani expressed his disappointment over the events and insisted to not get derailed by personal agendas.

“I am hugely disappointed by today’s events as I was looking forward to an interactive, productive and constructive discussion, which was aimed at taking Pakistan cricket forward.

‘We reaffirm our commitment to doing what is right for Pakistan cricket and once again becoming a strong force in the world game, and must not get derailed by personal agendas.”

According to the press release by PCB, the meeting was ‘adjourned for a brief period pursuant to five members attempting to table a resolution, which was not part of the agenda’.
