Pakistan Cricket Board director general Javed Miandad quit today following disagreements with the crisis-hit governing body of the country's national sport.



"The PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) wanted to restrict me to domestic affairs and I don't want any interference in my work. I have therefore resigned," Miandad said.



His resignation comes just a day after the PCB replaced Shoaib Malik with Younus Khan as captain of the Pakistan team following a humiliating defeat to Sri Lanka that sparked huge criticism in the cricket-mad country.
