Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Management Committee Zaka Ashraf is not eligible to contest the Board’s election due to not having a BA (Bachelor of Arts) degree, Urdupoint has reported.
A BA degree has been made mandatory for PCB chairmanship, but sources say that Zaka Ashraf is not participating in the election as he does not have one. The caretaker federal government has recently approved a three-month extension in Ashraf’s tenure.
