Islamabad, 7/8: Former captain Inzamam-ul-Haq has been appointed Pakistan chief selector for a second time, filling a post that had been vacant since Haroon Rasheed quit last month.
Inzamam, who was Pakistan’s chief selector from 2016 to 2019, comes in again ahead of a crucial period for the national side. His first task will be the announcement of a squad for Pakistan’s three-match ODI series against Afghanistan in Sri Lanka, which begins on August 22. It will be followed by the ODI Asia Cup. Inzamam, who named the squad for the 2019 World Cup, will also be tasked with the 2023 World Cup squad announcement. The tournament takes place in India from October 5 to November 19.
