Sachinism Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Last week they selected ICL players for the their World T20 Squad and now they've dropped them :haha::haha::haha: Idiots should really sit down, think, discuss, finalise things before acting all hard and looking to take on ICC and BCCI lol --- The Pakistan Cricket Board has backed out of a potential face-off with the ICC and the BCCI by dropping three ICL players from its list of 30 probables for the ICC World Twenty in June. In a face-saving measure, the PCB has placed Abdul Razzaq, Imran Nazir and Rana Naved-ul-Hasan on standby pending ICC approval. They have been replaced by Saeed Ajmal, Zulfiqar Jan and Mohammad Hafeez. However, it's understood that the ICC is highly unlikely to grant any such approval when its board meets in Dubai on April 17-18 to decide on the issue. The PCB on Monday officially broke ranks with the Indian board, a traditional ally, by naming the three ICL players without approval from the ICC, the tournament organisers. The 17 ICL-contracted players from Pakistan were allowed to participate in domestic cricket after the Sind High Court temporarily lifted the ban in February. Wicketkeeper Zulfiqar is the only uncapped player among the three replacements. Ajmal, the offspinner, last played in the third ODI against Sri Lanka in Lahore this January while batsman Mohammad Hafeez hasn't represented his country since October 2007. Pakistan Squad: Younis Khan (capt), Salman Butt, Nasir Jamshed, Khalid Latif, Shahzaib Hasan, Ahmed Shehzad, Umar Amin, Misbah-ul-Haq, Faisal Iqbal, Fawad Alam, Shoaib Malik, Shahid Afridi, Sohail Tanvir, Yasir Arafat, Kamran Younis, Shoaib Akhtar, Umar Gul, Rao Iftikhar Anjum, Aizaz Cheema, Mohammad Aamer, Wahab Riaz, Imran Ali, Danish Kaneria, Abdul Rehman, Yasir Shah, Kamran Akmal (wk), Sarfraz Ahmed, Saeed Ajmal, Zulfiqar Jan, Mohammad Hafeez ICL players initially included: Abdul Razzaq, Naved-ul-Hasan, Imran Nazir -cricinfo Link to comment

EnterTheVoid Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 How totally unsurprising The latest production of "The Wizard of Oz" is in town. They are looking for someone to play the lead role of the cowardly lion Link to comment
King Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 PCB is a joke as usual. Imagine the plight of the players that are removed from the list and added to the list like a makeup on women's face. The players get treated like dirt in Pakistan. No wonder a lot of retired players make a bee-line to work for Indian sports channels and media. Link to comment
Zap_Brannigan Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 As expected. Afterall, the P in PCB stands for Pakistan. Link to comment
mausumidas Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 PCB has been successful in doing at least one favor to itself. They have managed diverting Miandad time to develop Chenese cricket. Pershaps at their own cost. Link to comment
