LAHORE (92 News) - Inzamamul Haq on Monday resigned as the chairman of the national men's selection committee and junior selection committee.

He was appointed as the chairman of the national men's committee on August 7, 2023 and was also appointed chairman of the junior men's selection committee earlier this month.

Inzamam said: "I am stepping down from the post to offer the PCB the opportunity to conduct a transparent inquiry about the conflict of interest allegations raised in the media. If the committee finds me not guilty, I will resume my role as the chief selector."

The PCB appreciates and acknowledges Inzamam's decision to voluntarily step down during this investigation.

Meanwhile, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has set up a five-member fact-finding committee to investigate allegations in respect of conflict of interest reported in the media pertaining to the team selection process.

The committee will submit its report and any recommendations to the PCB Management in an expeditious manner.
