A Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) official has confirmed that a few names are being considered after Iqbal Qasim resigned as the board’s cricket committee head.
Iqbal stepped down from the position earlier this month, saying he post is “toothless”.
Legendary batsman Zaheer Abbas, iconic fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar and Col (r) Naushad Ali are among the names that have popped up to replace Iqbal. But, it all remains speculation right now.
Despite saying a few candidates are in the running to succeed Iqbal, the PCB official didn’t identify any of them.
“Iqbal Qasim has recently resigned from the post of cricket committee head and as such the PCB is currently looking for a suitable candidate on the post. At the moment we even did not finalise the name as a new head of the cricket committee,” the official was quoted as saying by Geo Super. “There are a few other names which are being considered. At the moment nothing has been finalised.”
