PCB Remained silent During Jay Shah’s Nomination as ICC Chairman

Jay Shah has become the youngest chairman of the International Cricket Council (ICC) after his 5-year tenure as the secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Jay will be taking over the office from December 1, 2024, and will be the successor of Greg Barclay as has completed his tenure of four years.

The ICC currently has 16 members since there is not a Women’s director as of now. During the stage of nomination, Shah got backed up by 15 of the 16 members, and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) was the one who quietly observed everything during the whole process of nomination.

As per a report, when boards like the England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) and Cricket Australia (CA) were in support of Shah being appointed, PCB remained silent on the matter.

“There wasn’t any word from PCB. Not that it was required because Shah had overwhelming support from the members. But the Pakistan board preferred to play the role of a spectator during the entire process,” told a source.
