PCB seeks answers over Rizwan, Imam picks as Misbah quits committee
PCB questions selection decisions after Test losses in England.
The Pakistan Cricket Board is seeking an explanation from its selection committee over the rationale behind including Mohammad Rizwan and Imam-ul-Haq. The move follows Pakistan's poor performance in the ongoing England Test series.
Several players and coaching staff have been released and replaced amid this overhaul. Misbah-ul-Haq is reportedly set to resign from the selection committee after the board questioned the choices that led to the squad composition.
The board questioned the rationale behind including Mohammad Rizwan and Imam-ul-Haq after Pakistan lost the Lord's Test by 194 runs. The defeat gave England an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-Test series.
