Karachi, Feb. 2: Feeling ignored and unwanted, former captain Javed Miandad on Tuesday threatened to resign from the director general’s post in the Pakistan Cricket Board if the state of affairs don’t improve.
A miffed Miandad said that his post was a mere ornamental one. "Basically they are not allowing me to do anything and I am bypassed in everything even in areas which are supposed to come under my control," Miandad alleged.
The former captain, who has fallen out with PCB chairman Ejaz Butt, alleged that by ignoring him, the board chief was in fact defying chief patron and President Asif Ali Zardari, who had appointed Miandad.
"I am here because of the chief patron who has appointed me and given me other responsibilities, everyone must understand this. I have no problems resigning because I can earn more from other work," he said. He said he has already written a letter to Zardari, outlining the problems in the board and how Butt was working. — PTI
