The former Test captain has come under fire for his apparent failure to deliver suitably in the challenging dual role as the cricket team continues to be plagued by inconsistent results.
Moin is expected to be relieved of the task of managing the team and asked to concentrate wholly on selection matters.
The BoG is also expected to review Pakistan’s woeful run against Australia in the ODIs staged in the UAE earlier in the month.
The ensuing ODI captaincy debate is also likely to come under discussion as the members contemplate captain Misbahul Haq’s form leading up to next year’s World Cup.
BoG to select candidate for ICC presidency
The BoG is also set to choose a candidate who will take over as the next president of the International Cricket Council (ICC).
During the annual meeting of ICC officials held in Melbourne last June, Pakistan was awarded the right of selecting the next president of the game’s governing body.
An official close to the matter told The Express Tribune that a few names were under consideration, but a former board chairman was likely to be selected for the post as Pakistan hopes to get some clout in important ICC decisions.
The Pakistan nominee will succeed the incumbent president, Bangladesh’s Mustafa Kamal, in 2016. After the introduction of a chairman’s post, the president has most of its powers curtailed. However, the post remains symbolically important in the ICC framework.
By installing a president for the two-year tenure, the PCB is seeking improvement in its relations with the ICC members along with the possibility of inviting foreign teams for cricketing tours.

@Sarim:
Now coming to Afridi.Having told the cycle of the PCB i personally believe that Afridi does not fulfills the PARCHI criteria of the PCB so PCB does not favour him.
WHY AFRIDI IS NOT CAPTAIN:
Afridi leads by example when he is captain.He votes for merit based players.PCB wants afridi to be the captain but at the cost of bypassing merit and playing those players whom PCB wants and Afridii does not do this.Therefor Misbah, the dummy become the automatic choice of the PCB
@Sarim: If Moin was supporting Afridi it was for the betterment of Pakistan team.Have you ever realized what is going wrong with the team?why this team performs badly?.Why same players keep coming back in the team and why Misbah remains as captain in spite of continuous losses?
REASONS: Corruption is the second name of Pakistan and the PCB is no exception.We know that merit does not prevail in this country and the leaders find ways to bypass the criteria of merit.Firstly, PCB is patronized by the PM unlike other countries.This is to enable them to put those players in the system who are relatives of people from the minstires/embasies/govt institutions like oil,energy,revenue etc.Secondly, PM needs a chairman who obeys his orders, so the chairman is appointed by the PM himself unlike other countires.Forthly, the chairman wants a dummy kind of captain who is a YES MAN and does not have to courage to bypass him and Misbah is that kind of captain.When Misbah performs badly he becomes more pressured to do what chairman says and Misbah automatically becomes the eye candy of the PCB.
Moin has been supporting Afridi and causing friction in the team. Good decision, Moin needs to go from one position.and stop his politics.
High time to let go of this decisive person , who is good for nothing except creating fissures in the team. .
Let him go so he join IK and his container friends .
