Wasim Khan, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), has stepped down as head of the Cricket Committee.

In conversation with the media, Mani said that Wasim, as a CEO of the board, could exert influence over committee decisions.

Therefore, we mutually decided that he will step down as the head, but retain the membership of the committee. We will soon appoint an independent chairman.

Mani reflected that the idea was to have a ‘completely independent’ committee comprising of domestic and international cricketers, who could give insightful advice, critical analysis and have access to all levels of cricket – domestic or international.

They can speak to the captain, the coach, challenge our senior officials — even Wasim, discuss the wickets, the pitches, the grounds.
