Karachi: Javed Miandad has decided to quit as Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) director general after a disagreement with the board chairman Ijaz Butt over his role. Miandad told IANS on Wednesday that he had a meeting with Butt in Lahore in which he refused to accept the revised job description. According to the former Pakistan captain, the new job description had curtailed the directior general’s (DG) role to looking after domestic cricket and development of grounds. When Miandad was appointed as DG almost two months back, Butt had issued a circular among the senior board officials in which he stated that Miandad would be the number two on the PCB chain of command. “I’ve decided against continuing as director general because the new job description is completely different from what was decided earlier,” said a disgruntled Miandad. “I only joined the PCB because I wanted to play a role in the promotion of cricket but I can’t do that in the present circumstances,” he added. Miandad was working for the PCB for the last couple of months without even deciding his salary and other perks. (IANS)
