Aamir terms current PCB regime illegal

KARACHI: Former Test captain Aamir Sohail has slammed the current Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), branding it illegal which was installed through a ‘questionable’ committee.

Aamir was made chief selector in February this year only to be removed days later when Najam Sethi took over the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) after an order by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.

Aamir questioned the legality of the current PCB, saying that the patron of the board was changed from the president to the prime minster through the Inter-Provincial Coordination Committee (IPCC), whose existence is also questionable.

However, Aamir said he was ready to support Moin Khan, who had been appointed as the new manager and chief selector.

Although, Aamir, added, Moin’s ability and future would depend on his performance.

The PCB appointed a six-member selection committee — the biggest in its history — to choose the team to start a hectic season leading up to next year’s World Cup.
