Riaz named Pakistan’s chief selector
Former fast bowler Wahab Riaz was appointed as Pakistan’s chief selector yesterday, after Inzamam-ul-Haq stepped down last month following allegations of a conflict of interests.
Former captain Inzamam resigned after Pakistani media reported one of his co-directors in a UK-based company was managing director of an agency representing leading Pakistani cricketers.
He quit during Pakistan’s disappointing World Cup campaign in which they exited at the group stage after finishing fifth in the standings.
Pakistan bowling coach Morne Morkel stepped down on Monday and batsman Babar Azam resigned as captain on Wednesday.
