The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced on Monday that Haroon Rasheed's selection committee is disbanded with immediate effect.

Following the special committee’s report on poor team performance in Asia Cup and World Twenty20, PCB Chairman Shaharyar Khan announced his decision to replace the current selection committee in order to address the problems in Pakistan cricket.

According to PCB’s press release, “Having reviewed the report of the special committee the chairman has accepted the recommendations therein with regard to a change in selection committee. Therefore, with immediate effect the selection committee has been disbanded and a new selection committee will be announced in due course.”



Previously, Haroon Rasheed faced criticism in former coach Waqar Younis’ post-World T20 report.

Furthermore, the special committee also recommended hiring a new team psychologist as well as a new dietitian to deal with fitness issues of the players.
