In a significant development at the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) headquarters in Lahore, Misbah-ul-Haq, the former cricket captain, has been offered a pivotal role in the administration of Pakistan cricket. The meeting between Misbah-ul-Haq and PCB Chairman Zaka Ashraf took place at the iconic Gaddafi Stadium.
A Selfless Decision
During the meeting, Zaka Ashraf proposed that Misbah-ul-Haq should take charge of all cricket management affairs, including the prestigious position of Chief Operating Officer (COO). However, despite the tempting offer, Misbah-ul-Haq politely declined the COO role, citing his busy schedule as the primary reason.
A New Leadership Path
Undeterred, Zaka Ashraf convinced Misbah-ul-Haq to embrace a vital role by leading both the cricket committee and the technical committee. Acknowledging Misbah-ul-Haq’s immense experience and expertise, Zaka Ashraf expressed his desire to have him spearhead the upcoming technical committee.
An Unpaid Commitment
In a selfless gesture, Misbah-ul-Haq agreed to work as the head of the technical committee without any remuneration. He expressed gratitude for the offer and assured everyone of his commitment to forming a competent team soon.
The decision to assign Misbah-ul-Haq to the technical committee is seen as a strategic move by the PCB. His involvement is expected to bring valuable insights and experience, which could have a positive impact on Pakistan cricket’s future. Cricket enthusiasts eagerly await the formation of the technical committee and look forward to witnessing Misbah-ul-Haq’s contribution to elevating the sport in the country.
