Najam Sethi has officially withdrawn his candidacy for the position of chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). The 75-year-old former journalist and current cricket administrator, who assumed the role of interim chairman in 2022 following Ramiz Raja’s resignation, made the announcement on Twitter.

In his tweet, Sethi expressed his desire to avoid becoming a source of conflict between Asif Zardari and Shehbaz Sharif, stating that the instability and uncertainty resulting from their rivalry would be detrimental to the PCB.
“Salaam everyone! I don’t want to be a bone of contention between Asif Zardari and Shehbaz Sharif. Such instability and uncertainty are not good for PCB. Under the circumstances, I am not a candidate for the Chairmanship of PCB. Good luck to all stakeholders,” he tweeted.
According to reports, Sethi and Zaka Ashraf, who has recently gained support for his potential return, have a history of competing for leadership within the Pakistan Cricket Board. In 2013 and 2014, they engaged in a lengthy legal battle over the position.
