Pakistan appoint Latif as chief selector


(MENAFN- Kora) Latif moves into the role after the appointment of another former captain, Aamir Sohail, was cancelled by PCB chairman Najam Sethi earlier this month



The 45-year-old is known for his tough stance on match-fixing, famously lifting the lid on the practice within his own team in 1994



Latif will assume his position on April 1 and will also assist PCB in imparting training and conducting lectures on anti-corruption



But his focus now returns to his homeland, much to Latif's delight



"I am excited on getting associated with PCB," he said



"I will endeavour to build a strong team keeping in view the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015. I will also assist PCB in whatever way I can in anti-corruption matters.



Chairman Sethi added: "Rashid is an extremely valuable addition to our team. I have keenly followed his forthright views on cricket in the past and I trust he will be able to bring about positive change in our cricket.
