Zaka Ashraf takes charge as chairman of PCB management committee

Firstpost  

The decision to make Zaka Ashraf the committee head comes after PCB had to postpone the Board election. Zaka Ashraf, who was the favourite to become the next Pakistan Cricket Board head, on Thursday, took charge as the chairman of a new 10-member PCB management committee. The government has removed PCB election commissioner Ahmed Shehzad Farooq Rana and appointed advocate supreme court Mahmood Iqbal Khakwani in his place. The PCB election of its new chairman was postponed on June 26 after Baluchistan High Court accepted the petition of Gul Mohammad Kakar, a former member of the PCB management committee, and set a hearing for July 17. Before former chairman Najam Sethi dropped out of the election, he formed a 10-member board of governors that also included two direct nominees from Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, the PCB patron.
