Younis has been one of the greatest bowlers in the world including Pakistan
Former Pakistan cricket team fast bowler Waqar Younis is all set for another stint with Pakistan cricket very soon. However, this time he may not be seen with the Pakistan team but in a big role in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
So Younis has been seen meeting Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi regarding his role in the board. Also, if everything goes well, Younis will be seen working in a big role with the board at the beginning of next month.
This role of Younis in the Pakistan Cricket Board will be similar to the one that Robert Key is currently playing in the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). If ESPN Cricinfo is to be believed, Mohsin Naqvi can hand over the responsibility of all cricket related matters of the board to Younis, such as selection and high performance along with other matters.
