Pakistan have appointed former captain Inzamam-ul-Haq as their chief selector.
The 46-year-old resigned as Afghanistan coach on Sunday to take on his new job, regarded as one of the toughest in the sport.
Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Shaharyar Khan said: "Inzamam agreed to take over as chief selector and we are thankful to the Afghanistan cricket board for releasing him."
During his six months as Afghanistan coach, Inzamam led the team to one-day and Twenty20 series victories over Zimbabwe and qualification for the main rounds of the World Twenty20 - the high point of which was their win over eventual champions West Indies in the group stages.
Former spinner Tauseef Ahmed, all-rounder Wasim Haider and opener Wajahatullah Wasti will join his selection committee whose first task will be to pick squads for the tour of England where they play four Tests, five one-day internationals and a Twenty20 starting in July.
Inzamam, who replaces former batsman Haroon Rasheed, said he will do his best to improve their fortunes.
"It was my long time wish to serve Pakistan cricket," said Inzamam, who played 120 Tests and 378 ODIs during an illustrious international career.
"I will try my best to be on the same page with captains and coach of the team for better results."
Pakistan are likely to name a head coach later this month after Waqar Younis resigned following the team's failure to reach the last four in the World Twenty20.
