July 27, 2018
ISLAMABAD, July 27 (INP): The victory of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf in the general elections is set to shake up the institutional structure of Pakistan with major changes in the top brass of state-owned institutions. As Imran Khan is sure to take charge as the next Prime Minister of the country, his long-time friend Wasim Akram is expected to take over the reins of country’s cricket board, the PCB. Currently, Najam Sethi, a veteran journalist, is the PCB chief, however, Imran’s rise to power has paved way for the left-arm bowler to take control of PCB, which would definitely be reshuffled owing to Imran Khan’s cricketing past. Akram’s selection as the next PCB chief was also confirmed by one of his family members in a conversation with a sports portal.
