A well-placed source in the board has informed PTI that Naqvi has taken a cue from other national boards and wants a former player to handle all cricket-related matters.

바카라Waqar Younis is a top candidate to be handed over complete responsibility of looking after men바카라s cricket, including liaising with the two foreign head coaches, national selectors and domestic cricket departments,바카라 the source said.

The source informed that the PCB chief aims to give full power to the former fast bowler to manage men바카라s cricket affairs as the director while some of the matters can also be looked after by other former players.

바카라Naqvi doesn바카라t want to centralise all powers as he wants to decentralise things, especially where cricket issues are concerned. In future, even international cricket schedules and issues would be looked over by the director of cricket,바카라 he added.

The source added that at the moment, Naqvi is focussed on preparations for hosting the Champions Trophy and matters related to the tournament along with other administrative decisions in the board.

바카라Being the federal interior minister, Naqvi believes that it is only fair that all cricket matters are handled by specialists and not only people in administration,바카라 he added.

According to the source, the director of cricket would have powers to appoint other former players for assistance.

The 52-year-old Younis, who is settled in Australia with his family, has served as Pakistan바카라s head coach as well as bowling coach in separate stints in the past and remains available to provide his services to the national side.
