Biography

Abubaker Sediq, Finance Manager, Afghanistan Cricket Board

Abubaker Sediq, the Finance Manager at the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB), was born in March 1988 in Mohammad Agha District of Logar Province. In his role, he oversees all financial operations of the ACB. His key responsibilities include managing and forecasting cash flows, compiling, verifying, and implementing the organization’s master budget plan, and conducting regular financial analysis. Additionally, he is responsible for managing ACB’s bank accounts and tax obligations, as well as following up on and clearing government and stakeholder budgets.

Mr. Sediq holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) in Finance from Kardan University in Kabul. His academic journey also includes pursuing the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) qualification, which is an exceptional achievement.

In 2020, while working towards his ACCA qualification, a particular moment proved transformative. He came across a social media post highlighting an ACCA student from Afghanistan who had achieved the highest global marks. Inspired by this achievement, Mr. Sediq reached out to the individual. That brief conversation ignited a realization within him, that he, too, could aspire not just to pass but to excel at the highest level.

Despite the challenges of balancing work, family responsibilities, and studies, he committed himself fully to his goal. By restructuring his daily routine, sacrificing late nights and early mornings, and maintaining laser-sharp focus, he immersed himself deeply in the demanding ACCA syllabus.

His dedication paid off. In 2021, he achieved the highest marks worldwide in the F7 Financial Reporting exam, ranking third globally and first in Afghanistan. The official confirmation from ACCA, both the congratulatory message and the prize certificate, was a moment of immense pride and a testament to his perseverance, faith, and hard work.

Mr. Sediq’s journey reflects a powerful message: the limits we face are often self-imposed. His story demonstrates that with unwavering belief, discipline, and determination, even the most ambitious goals can be achieved.

His role at the Afghanistan Cricket Board offers him not only professional fulfillment but also a profound sense of purpose. Applying the theoretical knowledge gained through his MBA and ACCA qualifications, he contributes meaningfully to the financial sustainability and growth of the national sport.

Beyond the numbers, what truly motivates Mr. Sediq is the joy and unity that cricket fosters, both within Afghanistan and globally. Witnessing Afghan cricketers bring pride and victories to the nation serves as a constant reminder that dedication, teamwork, and passion can inspire millions. For him, working at ACB is more than a career; it is a platform to contribute to something larger than himself and to help build a legacy that unites a nation and spreads joy across borders.
