On Monday, the Pakistani Cricket Council (PCB) denied reports that the Chairman of the Board of Directors, Mohsen Naqafi, is reluctant to his role after his appointment as the Chairman of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC). PCB described “baseless” reports. Speculation has been spread since last week in the Pakistani cricket circles that Naqafi sent his resignation to Prime Minister Shehabz Sharif, who is also the sponsor of the council. Reports indicated that Nafei decided to step down after Pakistan’s poor show in New Zealand, where they lost the T20i series 1-4 and ODI 0-3, weeks after the catastrophic picnic in the Champions Cup.
Najam Sethi’s name appeared as a standing caliph.
“There is no truth to reports about Mr. Naqafi’s resignation,” said a chlorine vinyl official.
“He continues to perform his duties as a chlorine vinyl vehicle head and is still completely committed to the development of Pakistani cricket.” Naqafi, who is also the country’s interior minister, was also elected without opposition as Chairman of the Administrative Coordination Committee earlier this month, to become the first Pakistani to hold this position since 2008.
The official also explained that the dual responsibilities of PCB and ACC are “unprecedented and can be managed with effective time management.” “It is a honor for Pakistan to lead our ACC representative. Moheen had no intention to step down from a multi -chlorine vinyl at this point.”
