The Pakistan Cricket Board has decided not to renew chief selector Inzamam-ul-Haq and coach Mickey Arthur’s contracts, which ends with the conclusion of World Cup in mid-July.
Former captain Aamir Sohail is already being considered as the chief selector in place of Inzamam whose three-year contract will end in July. “Sohail’s name is top among the list of short-listed contenders. PCB’s managing director, Wasim Khan will make the decision on new appointments for the position of the chief selector and head coach,” a PCB source said.
Sohail has in the past remained chief selector between 2002 and 2004. He said it had been decided in principle to make the changes regardless of how the national team fared in the World Cup.
It’s not clear whether a foreigner will replace Arthur or a local player.
