Zaheer Ali appointed to TTCB
PRESIDENT of the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board Azim Bassarath has welcomed the appointment of former national cricketer Zaheer Ali as a nominated member of the TTCB.
Ali is a police officer who heads the Zaheer Ali Foundation, and replaces Pirtie Ramnarinesingh, the Valiants Cricket Club manager/owner who passed away suddenly last month. Bassarath said that Ali brings a wealth of experience as a former national cricketer and public servant whose unique perspective will add to the deliberations of the board as the game continues its transition into the future.
“Zaheer has been making a valuable input in local cricket especially in the development of the young players through his foundation which has been playing an integral part in conducting motivational and psycho-analytical sessions with the Under-19 NGC/TTCB Academy,” said Bassarath.
