PCB changes constitution

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) constitution has been amended to change the process of appointing the board's chairman and alter the structure of its governing board. The president of Pakistan, who is the patron of the PCB, still plays the central role in appointing the chairman and the incumbent Zaka Ashraf will hold office until the new constitution is implemented, which is likely to be before June 2013.
According to the 22-page document, a copy of which was obtained by ESPNcricinfo, the president of Pakistan will recommend at least two chairman candidates to a four-member nomination committee, which will evaluate them and recommend one to the board of governors, which will have to endorse the appointment unanimously. The board chairman's term has also been extended from three years to four.
