Pakistan Cricket Board ( PCB) chairman Najam Sethi has backed the country’s beleaguered Test and one-day international skipper Misbah-ul-Haq to retain his role until the next 50-overs World Cup in 2015.
Sethi’s public show of support on Thursday provides a welcome boost for the 39-year-old batsman, who has come under increasing criticism for the team’s poor performances in the short and long form of the game this year. ‘PCB chairman Najam Sethi reiterates that Misbah enjoys his full confidence and should continue to remain captain until at least the World Cup.’
