Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chief Najam Sethi is looking forward to remodel the domestic cricket structure in the country.

In an interview, the PCB chairman said regional cricket is important when it comes to preparing players and a plan is under way to pay a better stipend to first class players so that regions can keep producing good players.

According to him, there have been suggestions to expand the number of teams from eight to 10 while some have recommended no changes take place at all.

Speaking about team selection and the recent debate surrounding the exclusion of Fawad Alam from the national squad, Sethi said that he does not interfere in team selection. For him, chief selector Inzamam-ul-Haq is an expert when it comes to team selection and he has no issues with his decisions.

On the upcoming tour of Pakistan cricket team of England and Ireland, Sethi said he is looking forward to Pakistan's encounter against Ireland who will be applying their first ever test match.

However, the chairman was skeptical about the conditions in England, saying that the Pakistani batsmen will face problems over there.
