Shahbaz Nadeem, JSCA joint secretary and ex-India spinner, opens up about experience in administration

Former international cricketer Shahbaz Nadeem recently discussed his new journey in sports administration following his retirement in 2024. Now serving as joint secretary for the Jharkhand State Cricket Association after his election last May, the 37-year-old explained that players possess valuable insights into athlete welfare and hold the authority to execute necessary changes.

Speaking during an interrupted Ranji Trophy fixture, Nadeem suggested that combining former players with administrative professionals creates an ideal framework for running cricket associations smoothly, while also expressing high praise for young left-arm spinner Manav Suthar.
