Misbah-ul-Haq Offers Resignation After Pakistan Test Squad and Coaching ChangesPreviousNext

Former Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq has offered to resign from the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) national selection committee and his role at the National Cricket Academy following a major overhaul of the Test squad and coaching staff during the England tour. The PCB dropped seven players and replaced head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed and bowling coach Umar Gul after a 194-run defeat at Lord's. Misbah was reportedly unhappy about being excluded from these decisions. The PCB has yet to accept his resignation.
