king2be98 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Ok now, I'm sure the players are disappointed, they would have made quite a lot of money from playing in the IPL, some of them would have made a heck of a lot, Umar Akmal would have got for a decent amoutn as well. However as a Pakistani I am delighted, because just like the last tournament, the Indians will go in lathargic and exhausted and play some domestic basher like Rohit Sharma. Pakistan will go in with fresh legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman1980 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Pak players to play in IPL III New Delhi: The Indian Ministry of External Affairs on Thursday cleared visas for all four Pakistan cricketers needed to participate in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2010. Kamran Akmal, Misbah-ul-Haq, Sohail Tanvir and Umar Gul will now be free to take part in the third edition of the IPL. IPL sources say they will discuss on December 17 whether these players are eligible to participate in the third season of the cash-rich league. Earlier, Lalit Modi, the IPL commissioner, had ruled out the participation of Pakistan players after they failed to obtain visas by December 7, the deadline set by the organisers. Pakistan players looked to have missed out on the upcoming edition of the lucrative league because the visa deadline had passed while their applications were still being processed. According to an official statement on Wednesday, the Indian High Commission was approached by the PCB for issuance of visa to only one player – Sohail Tanvir – while three other players submitted visa applications to the High Commission of India in Wellington. The High Commission said in a media release it was never advised about any deadlines for issuing visas to Pakistan players, either by the IPL organising committee or the PCB. Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ejaz Butt said that deadline may be put back yet again, after two previous extensions. "Give us a day or two and everything will be settled down," Butt told AP. "I can only say this much at the moment, that we are hopeful of Pakistan players' participation in next year's IPL." The PCB has already got the required clearance from the national government for its players to compete in the third edition of IPL. Five Pakistan cricketers — Abdul Razzaq, Gul, ul-Haq, Akmal and Tanvir — hold contracts with various IPL franchises. However, should Pakistan players be allowed to return in 2010, there was expected to be a clamour among IPL franchises to sign contracts with players from the 2009 Twenty20 World Cup winning team. Pakistan Twenty20 captain Shahid Afridi, young batting sensation Umar Akmal and paceman Mohammad Asif would be among those in demand. http://cricketnext.in.com/news/visas-cleared-pak-players-to-play-in-ipl-iii/45677-13.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
