PCB mulls two-year ban on ex-cricketers over unauthorised Zambia league

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has initiated disciplinary proceedings against a group of former Pakistan cricketers.

As a consequence, they face potential two-year bans from all PCB-sanctioned events. The ban, if imposed, would also bar them from taking up coaching or consultancy roles with the board. The PCB has used the occasion to stress that players must seek proper clearance before participating in any international cricket activities.
