I know Sethi came with a lot of baggage but under his tenure a lot has gone right for Pakistani cricket. It’s a shame he can’t stay on.
I want all of Pakistan to unite. I want to make it clear that anyone who was against us, who voted against us, I think the kind of personal attacks that I have seen, no one has seen those, but I have forgotten all of those, they are behind me. ... my cause is far bigger than me.
We will not do any kind of political victimising. We will establish supremacy of the law ... whoever violates the law, we will act against them.
What happened to Imran Khan victory speech?
What happened to Imran Khan victory speech?
I don't see how that speech means he has to let someone who oversaw PSL which has financial irregularities on a huge scale stay in-charge.
Not proven
Didn't Imran want PCB to be depoliticized and no political intervention so this is wrong. There should be change in system without any political intervention, make legislation to make system better and call for new PCB chairman election rather directly removing him.
Terrible decision by Mr U turn.

I'm loving all these cries of anguish by the Nooras. Long may it continue Inshallah
Mein inko rolaonga, mein inko takleeq pohchaonga.
Relax mate. Who said I want the thief back. Just stated a fact.Yeah lets have Nawaz Sharif back...
Nobody is crying. I m happy we somehow got rid of the status quo; but that doesn't mean I keep my eyes shut and don't criticize any wrongdoingThis statement will be remembered forever. And not only did he make PMLN and sharif family cry, but all noora supporters are also crying, including ones on this board

Brother bring the proof and if found guilty kick him out.So removing a corrupt person is a wrong doing?
Can't agree with you moreAt the end this is a ridiculous decision. Sethi has done a great job, yes chairmans come and go, but Sethi could easily be adjusted with a directors post or some other post.
James Sunderland was with Cricket Australia for 20 years and has done great things for that board.
Imran is just doing this just for the sake of it, nothing else.

I am an IK fan like many but should play neutral. Yes if something is wrong on either side we should criticize that.
I think Sethi with all his history with IK has done a job many before him couldn't do

Actually, you are crying. Someone who is glad he got rid of the status quo wouldn't cry and resort to name calling like u-turn khan.
Sethi was a political appointment. He was rewarded for helping noora win in punjab in 2013.
There is NAB reference against him, he cannot stay on while NAB investigates.

You are comparing james sunderland with najam sethi who hire his relative on top media department post in pcb.also he is facing nab corruption case .good bro
NAB has cleared him
but now PTI is pressurring NAB, so please dont give us the lame ** that oh immy aint involved

Good IK is involved and pressurizing NAB. He is the people's elected Prime Minister. What he says goes. Samaj ayi?
wow
so trying to place a false corruption charge for the sake of it is ok.....
its funny how some people talk about not doing wrong, but when their own resort to it, then its ok.
He can do it. He has people's mandate to clean the house. You can keep crying.

clean the house?
so kicking out competent people and placing your own TCs in important position is cleaning the house?

I told you I have every right to say wrong what is wrong even if he is my favorite.Actually, you are crying. Someone who is glad he got rid of the status quo wouldn't cry and resort to name calling like u-turn khan.

Read your own link... and read it twice. Sethi has refused to release the audit report of PSL despite him being asked to do so, and that is why PTI have approached NAB. Why is he not releasing? Does he have something to hide? It's publics money who is Sethi to not release audit report?
Can you provide evidence that his tenure has been completely transparent?
Do not much about Sunderland but i am pretty sure his tenure was completely transparent.
so no one should fix this?
oh bhai, every chairman who comes is a political appointment.
You want a fair appointment? then why not have elections amongest all the regional board chairmans?
And you can say that how? Plz lend me your crystal ballEven the guy Imran will bring in as Chairman will be based on Nepotism.

And Imran will do that as he has promised multiple times. Let's wait and see

[MENTION=135038]Major[/MENTION] read my above post.
Sethi is part of the problem in as much as he is a political appointee; if you live by the sword you will die by the sword. Imran as PM is entitled to appoint a CM of his choosing in the same way NS was entitled to do so.
Thankfully Imran has much more vision than that and wants to make the PCB independent from the government and merit-based. In other words, he wants to limit his power as PM to interfere with the PCB- that is unheard of in Pakistan and would bring us in line with the rest of the world.
Sethi's behaviour to date shows a refusal to work towards this and Imran is therefore justified to take the path he is taking.
Imran should have learned his lesson after the 35 punctures drama. The false accusation caused him great embarrassment, and PTI had to apologize on his behalf, since his ego was too big to apologize.
There is no cure for Sethiphobia. A very poor decision by Imran that lacks objectivity. Sethi has done an excellent job as PCB honcho and deserved to continue in his role.

if you are saying that PCB could elect its own chairman through elections amongest local region presidents, then our cricket is screwed.
My assumption is that the PSL was audited when the financials were discussed in the various Board meetings. I am sure the PCB has an annual audit after its year end by a reputed international accounting firm. How is it possible that the PCB and the PSL were not audited in the last 3 years?
their have been reports of waseem akram or some else being named as chairman.
Same reports as the one in OP.
Also, election ain't even possible and i would rather have political appointees being chairman then having elections as i have seen the corruption that happens at club level.
Pakistani cricekt circles arn't suited for having a properly elected chairman. Votes are bought here at club level.
Plus, even if they have elections at director level, you have Sheikh Shakil at that level who could become chairman which is even more dangerous
Stop with the personal comments. Stick to the topic.
But don't we want an independent PCB from political governance?
Like I said before, building institutions is a difficult concept to grasp but trust me when I say having strong institutions is key to a country's growth.
Reports? The same reports that said Atif khan would be CM KP? Or the same reports that have named at least 11 people as CM Punjab? Or may be the same reports that ensured everyone about Shah Mehmood Quershi being the next speaker. All wrong.
Are you really basing your predictions on these reports? Wasim wont be chairman PCB. That's stupid, and if that happens, I will call it exactly that.
Your last point is exactly why Imran will not have elections right away. He will most likely appoint someone to clean this mess, and then have elections. Like I said, wait and watch. Sethi, Shakil Sheikh etc. are all part of the same corrupt bunch. And in case you didnt know, Sethi's right hand man who is the head of infrastructure is also a close nawaz ally. He will be removed as well
We will see how “independent” PCB becomes. If Imran stays true to his word and PCB is freed from all political influences, I will appreciate his decision to remove Sethi.
However, I can’t help but feel that this decision has been motivated by his personal problems with Sethi and he has shown short-sightedness.
Sethi did a very good job and he is not full-time politician. He has differences with Sethi but it is nothing that can’t be solved. He has joined hands with many people that he used to hate in the past.
isnt this thread discussiong taking place on the basis of reports?
Although I respect freedom of speech, Najam Sethi was a fool to go out and start taking shots at Imran Khan following his election win.
For e.g. If the ECB chairman was to criticise Theresa May (when she took over from Cameron), the way Sethi did to Imran Khan, he would be pressurised to resign.
Also I have grave concerns with Sethi, with his past and now that we've discovered the PCB accounts haven't been audited. It reeks of corruption.
I do agree that Sethi should have stopped posting anti-Imran content after he won the elections.
However, had he done that, PTI supporters would have mocked him for being afraid and trying to save his position. Hence, it was a lose-lose situation for him.

Sethi should have stopped with any political work the moment he become PCB CM. End of.
Sethi is the one who wrote an anti-Imran article after his election victory.
