Pakistan Cricket Board officials yesterday came under fire at the hearing of Senate Standing Committee on Sports with a Senator demanding the resignation of beleaguered PCB chairman Ejaz Butt. 
According to details available, Butt and chief operating officer Saleem Altaf faced a lot of criticism from the committee. 
"I appeal to the chief patron of the board to kindly change the board set-up. Because if these same people remain in power, it would be the complete destruction of Pakistan cricket," Senator Enver Baig said after the meeting. 
Butt and Altaf faced the music for giving wrong figures in the construction work of a new wing at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, in which they claimed the former PCB officials had indulged in financial mismanagement. 
"Butt kept on claiming that due to poor management of the former board officials, the cost of the project had escalated from Rs 27 crores to Rs 47 crores. But he was soon taken to task by the committee members when it was proved that even with escalated costs, the project would be completed in Rs 31 crores and not Rs 47 crores," an eye witness said.
