Acting PCB chief says he will try to resolve Pakistan Cricket Board problems

The newly appointed acting chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board says he will try to lead the organization out of crisis in a transparent manner and will attend next week's annual board meeting of the International Cricket Council.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif appointed prominent journalist Najam Sethi to the post on Sunday after the Islamabad High Court ordered the government to replace PCB chairman Zaka Ashraf last month.

Sethi says his job "is to resolve all the problems of cricket board in a transparent manner like election, selection and then go back home."

Sethi also says he will look into the team recommendations of the selection committee for next month's tour of the West Indies before flying to London for the ICC meeting.
