PCB Chairman Zaka Ashraf is dismissed

Zaka Ashraf has to announce Pakistan team coach today
Islamabad : Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Zaka Asharaf is removed and whole PCB working body is also dismantled by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif. 

The timings of the removal are very critical as Pakistan has been isolated after Big Three issue, and former Chairman Zaka Ashraf has been complaining about chief patron Nawaz Sharif who, despite of repeated calls from PCB Chairman didn't bothered to meet him.

Today, PCB was also going to announce coach for the team from a four short listed persons.

Zaka Ashraf was selected as a Chairman in previous government but was removed by a court, later on a controversial figure, Najam Sethi, was appointed as PCB Chairman, Zaka was reinstated last month by supreme court as court saw him as a legitimately selected chairman.

It seems that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif who is Chief Patron of the PCB was not happy with the decision of the court and despite of several letters from Zaka he never meet him even during the critical times when PCB and its chairman Zaka needed guidance on the issue of Big Three.

Previous Chairman, Najam Sethi, while he was caretaker CM of Punjab has helped PM Nawaz Sharif to win election through unfair means as one such scandal broke the news in media that he changed the results of 35 National Assembly seats in favour of Nawaz Sharif.

Once again, Nawaz Sharif is on the path to change different chairman's and this is fourth one after PEMRA, State Bank, and NADRA.
