PCB Chief Backs Shahid Afridi, Says He Can Take 'Bold Decisions'

By IANS News January 03, 2023 • 11:44 AM View: 753

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Najam Sethi has extended his support towards newly appointed national team's interim chief selector Shahid Afridi and said that the former skipper can take "bold decisions".

Afridi was appointed as the selection committee's interim chair after Mohammad Wasim was sacked by the new PCB management after Pakistan suffered a humiliating first-ever 0-3 home series whitewash at the hands of England last month.
