Misbah-ul-Haq quits as Pakistan selector after 7 players sent home without his say

Misbah-ul-Haq on Tuesday offered to step down from Pakistan's national selection committee after the PCB made sweeping changes to the Test squad and team management during the ongoing England tour without consulting him.

Misbah's offer came a day after the PCB issued a notice to members of the national selection committee, seeking an explanation for the selection process adopted for the England tour, a reliable source in the board said.

"The selectors have been told to explain on what basis Muhammad Rizwan and Imam-ul-Haq were picked in the Test squad," the source said.
