Inzamam resigned as Chief Selector at a time when Pakistan is in India playing the World Cup. Inzamam, who had a blistering career as a player for Pakistan, has been a part of selection committee from quiet a while. His resignation came as a result of “Conflict of interest”.
“People speak without research. Questions were raised on me so I decided that it was better I resign,” Inzamam said in a statement
The first assignment for the new Chief selector is selecting a team for 2023-24 Australia tour. Pakistan will tour Australia in December. Pakistan will play three test matches against the World Test Champions.
