Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif put forth the names of ex-Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Zaka Ashraf and Supreme Court attorney Mustafa Ramday for positions on the PCB Board of Governors (BoG).
This development arrives in the wake of the PCB’s interim Management Committee chair, Najam Sethi, stepping back from his candidacy for the board’s forthcoming leadership role.
Today’s Prime Minister’s Office announcement included two nominees distinct from Sethi to sit on the PCB’s Board of Governors.

The government’s announcement acknowledged Ashraf and Ramday as the ex-PCB chief and a Supreme Court advocate, respectively.
