Lahore, December 13: Pakistan Cricket Board on Monday (December 13) announced the appointment of Faisal Hasnain as its new Chief Executive, who will formally assume charge in January 2022.
As the ICC's Chief Financial Officer, Faisal managed an overall financial portfolio of around $3 billion and was also involved in the sale of the ICC's commercial rights for the 2007-2015 and the 2016-2023 commercial cycles.
"I feel honoured and privileged to have been awarded with this once in a lifetime opportunity to serve Pakistan cricket and thank the PCB Chairman and the Board of Governors for having the confidence in my capabilities," said Faisal Hasnain in a statement.
"I am fully committed to playing my part in delivering the PCB Chairman's vision for Pakistan cricket, fulfilling the expectations and dreams of millions of passionate Pakistan cricket fans and strengthening the relationships with our existing commercial partners, the ICC and other Cricket Boards and developing new partnerships as we move forward," he added.
According to PCB, Faisal is a UK qualified Chartered Accountant and has had a professional career of over 35 years in high-profile finance and sports administration roles.
This includes his role in Monaco and Dubai as the Chief Financial Officer of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and as the Managing Director of Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC).
"I am delighted to confirm the appointment of Faisal Hasnain as the PCB's Chief Executive and welcome him to Pakistan cricket family," said PCB Chairman Ramiz Raja.
"Faisal is a familiar figure in world cricket and is highly regarded, respected and trusted for his excellence in corporate governance, financial management and commercial acumen.
“With the plans I have for the PCB, Faisal will be a perfect fit as he can utilise his vast experience and knowledge to help us achieve our commercial and financial objectives of making Pakistan cricket bigger and stronger," he added.
With Zimbabwe Cricket, he was instrumental in the refinancing of their commercial debts, arriving at the financial arrangements between ZC and the ICC, securing ZC's funding and status within the ICC and securing hosting rights for the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier 2018 - Zimbabwe's first global event in 15 years.
