Pakistan Cricket Board Plans Changes in Selection Committee After England Series Defeat
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is reportedly undertaking a 'clean-up' operation following the team's recent England series defeat. Senior selector Aqib Javed is likely to be removed from the national selection committee and asked to focus on his role at the Lahore High Performance Centre. This follows the sending back of players Mohammad Rizwan, Imam-ul-Haq, and Salman Ali Agha, who were dropped due to poor form and concerns over dressing room behaviour. PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi is leading these changes, with other selectors also offering to step down.
