Sources indicate that the decision to remove Riaz and Razzaq was influenced by their involvement in player selections that fell short of expectations.
Naqvi has expressed confidence in Muhammad Yusuf and Asad Shafiq, confirming that they will remain in their roles under the new committee structure.
“This step is necessary to uphold meritocracy and ensure accountability within the PCB,” commented a source close to the chairman’s office.
The chairman’s actions highlight a commitment to reorganizing and strengthening Pakistan’s cricket infrastructure, with plans to form a new selection committee soon.
