Azhar Ali Poised for Key Role in New PCB Setup

Azhar Ali, the former Pakistani cricketer, is anticipated to assume a significant role within the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), while Rehan ul Haq, a former team manager, is poised to return to his previous position.

Sources suggest that the new PCB chairman, Mohsin Naqvi, is keen on engaging Azhar Ali’s services either in the selection committee or within the high-performance center of the PCB.

Consequently, Rehan ul Haq, who previously served as the team manager during Najam Sethi’s tenure, is expected to resume his role in managing the Pakistan cricket team.

Azhar Ali, who made his debut in 2010 against Australia, enjoyed a distinguished career in Test cricket spanning 12 years. He amassed 7,097 Test runs, including 19 centuries and 35 half-centuries, at an average of 42.49 before retiring in 2022.

Currently, at 39 years old, Azhar Ali is actively involved as a cricket pundit, providing analysis on various television shows as he transitions into a new career following his retirement from cricket.

It appears that there are further changes in store for Pakistan’s cricketing setup before the T20 World Cup, with the PCB hierarchy focused on implementing additional alterations under Mohsin Naqvi’s tenure.

Earlier reports suggested that Mohsin Naqvi might step down from his position as PCB Chairman amid speculations of his potential appointment as Interior Minister in the country’s new coalition government.
