Senator Envar Baig asks PCB chairman to resign


ISLAMABAD: Senator Envar Baig has asked Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Ijaz Butt to immediately resign.

In a meeting of Senate’s standing committee for sports, presided by Senator Zafar Iqbal Chaudhry, PCB chairman has failed to satisfy the committee about Javed Miandad resignation issue.

Chairman PCB said neither Miandad had signed a contract nor he received any check. Ijaz Butt added that appointment of Javed Miandad without contract was his biggest mistake.

The committee has asked chairman PCB to explain the terms on which Miandad appointment was made. Sources said that committee has criticized chairman PCB and senator Envor Baig has asked Ijaz Butt to quit immediately.

Chief Operating Officer PCB Saleem Altaf, chief selector Abdul Qadir, former director general Javed Miandad, coach Intikhab Alam, former officials PCB Shafqat Naghmi, Nadeem Akram and Sports Minister Aftab Shah Jilani were also present in the meeting.
