In aftermath of the changing political scenario — after the General Election in Pakistan — there are widespread speculations about how it will impact the upper hierarchy within the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
According to Daily Express, certain individuals believe that Najam Sethi’s position as chairman PCB is in danger because of the power shift in federal governance.
On the very next day after the elections, Sethi adopted a policy of ‘wait and watch’ as he carried out his duties in a routine manner — despite being the center of all rumors and gossips throughout the day.
Even before chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Imran Khan has been sworn in as Prime Minister, many former cricketers and one owner of a Pakistan Super League (PSL) franchise are dreaming about becoming the next chairman of PCB.
During the election campaign former Pakistan cricketer Zakir Khan was quite close to Imran Khan but the possibility of him becoming the chairman PCB is a far-fetched thought. Although he is quietly confident about being giving back the responsibility of being Director International Cricket. It must be noted that Zakir is earning monetary and non-monetary benefits despite holding no official position.
