Inzamam ul Haq, Pakistan’s head selector, steps down due to claims of a “conflict of interest”

According to reports, Inzamam ul Haq, a former cricket player for Pakistan, resigned from his position as the team’s head selector due to claims that he owned stock in a well-known player management organization. Allegations of conflict of interest have resulted from such role.

A five-member fact-finding committee has been appointed by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to “investigate allegations in respect of conflict of interest reported in the media pertaining to the team selection process,” the PCB said in a statement.
The announcement stated, “The committee will expeditiously submit its report and any recommendations to the PCB Management.”

The announcement is a new setback for Pakistani cricket, which is already experiencing hardships as the squad is now ranked sixth in the world cup after winning only two of its first six games.

People talk without doing their homework. According to Source , Inzamam said, “I felt it was best to quit because questions were raised against me. “People are stating things without doing any investigation. I instructed the PCB to conduct research. I’m not associated with the player-agent business.

Yazoo International Limited, a player-management organization, is at the center of the controversy. “Inzamam is a shareholder in Yazoo International Limited, a company owned by players’ agent Talha Rehmani,” the Pakistani website Cricket Pakistan states. Rehmani is the representative of some of the best cricketers in Pakistan, such as Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohammad Rizwan, and Babar Azam.

There has been a lot of attention focused on the Pakistan cricket squad because of their problems in India. People are also doubting Inzamam’s position as well (he has been the top selector since August) as a result of this.

Zaka Ashraf, the head of the management committee for the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), recently stated to a new channel: “It appears to be a conflict of interest.” We shall give the chief selector a call to get his clarification on the accuracy of this report. However, it appears that Talha must also be in charge of the selection if he has influence over seven or eight individuals. We’ll get an explanation from the chief selector.

Such commercial arrangements might have led to a conflict between the team’s objectives. Laws will be drafted and the primary selectors will be questioned. If one agency had contracts with multiple players, that agent would have a monopoly. The board would take business agreements and agents seriously as they are important matters.
