LAHORE – Former Pakistan captain Inzamamul Haq on Monday stepped down as the chief selector of the national men’s selection committee over allegations of having shares in a players’ agent company.
Reports said, the member of the 1992 World Cup winning squad has sent his resignation to the PCB Chairman Zaka Ashraf.
The development comes after he was alleged of having shares in a company named Yazo International Limited, who is owned by an agent Talha Rahmani. The allegations had raised concerns of potential conflict of interest.
The former player rejected the allegations of having links with any players’ agent company.
Inzamam urged the PCB to conduct an inquiry into the matter, adding that he was ready to join the probe. He said those who are hurling the allegations should give evidence.
