It's players' right to play leagues, but Pakistan should be first priority: Shah Khawar

LAHORE (92 News) - PCB Acting Chairman Shah Khawar has said that it is players' right to play the Leagues, but their first priority should be Pakistan.

Addressing a press conference at Gaddafi Stadium on Friday, he said that there was a need to look into the agreements signed by the players.

"The PCB has the policy of giving centrally contracted players permission to attain NOC for a maximum of two leagues apart from HBL PSL over the course of a year. Their first priority has to be to play for Pakistan and all centrally contracted players must adhere to this.”

About his meeting with Team Director Muhammad Hafeez, he said: "We have to look into the statement of team director Muhammad Hafeez along with the context. There are several other reasons for the poor performance of the team," he added.
