KARACHI: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) appointed former Test cricketer Nadeem Khan as the director of the Pakistan Junior League (PJL).

Nadeem, who is currently working as Director of High-Performance Centre, has taken over PJL's matters too.

PCB has raced up preparations for the newly-introduced cricket league for U19 players. The cricket board has contacted different cricket bodies to rope in foreign players for the event.

Most of the cricket boards have responded positively to their players' participation in the extravaganza which will be played from October 1-15 in Lahore.

On Friday, Raja once again termed 'PJL' a project very close to his heart. "I always wanted to do something for grassroots cricket. PJL will help us find talented cricketers, that's why it is so close to my heart," the PCB boss told the media.
