PCB's Decision on NOC

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has denied No Objection Certificates (NOCs) to several Pakistani players, including Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Shaheen Afridi, due to workload management policies. Rizwan was named captain for the Riders, and Shaheen had announced his participation in GT20 instead of The Hundred, but PCB’s plans have changed. Some reports suggest this decision is part of a disciplinary action following Pakistan’s early exit from the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, where India emerged as world champions.
