Former Pakistani captain Mushtaq Mohammad has proposed that former Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Tauqir Zia should helm the affairs at the top of the board again, instead of Najam Sethi and Mohammad Zaka Ashraf.
The younger brother of 'Little Master' Hanif Mohammad, Mushtaq, who was an accomplished right-handed batsman of his time, expressed his frustration with the current PCB situation and slammed the lack of consistency at the board, with its constantly changing chairmen.
According to www.pakpassion.net, with speculations that the Ashraf vs.Sethi duel is not likely to diminish in intensity in the near future, well-wishers like Mushtaq are looking for candidates who could have a calming effect on the present situation.
The veteran cricketer, who now lives in England, feels that Pakistan needs some wise leadership to lead them out of this quagmire and proposed the names of Tauqir Zia and Arif Abbasi, who have both served Pakistan in the past.
Mushtaq hailed the leadership skills of Zia and Abbasi and said that Zia should be the next PCB chairman with Abbasi also having a key role in PCB affairs in order to lead Pakistani cricket out of this crisis into a stable environment.
