PCB chairman announces new seven-member selection committee

Lahore
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has introduced a new seven-member selection committee for the Pakistan men’s national team following the dissolution of the previous committee on Sunday.
Wahab Riaz, who previously served as the chief selector, remains a member of the new committee. However, unlike before, there won’t be a designated chief; instead, decisions will be made through majority voting.
The new selection committee comprises former cricketers Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Yousuf, Abdul Razzaq, and Asad Shafiq. The remaining three members will consist of the head coach, captain, and data analyst of the Pakistan cricket team, whose names have yet to be disclosed.
PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi has announced that the appointment of the head coach and coaching panel will be made public next week. Furthermore, the decision regarding Shaheen Afridi’s continuation as T20I captain will be determined by the selection committee following the conclusion of the national camp in Kakul on April 8.
The previous selection committee, now dissolved, was headed by former Pakistani pacer Wahab Riaz. Other members included Tauseef Ahmed, Wajahatullah Wasti, and Wasim Haider, with Kamran Akmal and Rao Iftikhar serving as consultant members and Hasan Muzaffar Cheema as the manager analyst.
