Pakistan bans former captains
9:55am Wednesday 10th March 2010 in
The Pakistan Cricket Board have banned former captains Younis Khan and Mohammad Yousuf from the national team for life as part of a stunning crackdown on player indiscipline.
Shoaib Malik and Rana Naved-ul Hasan were also handed one-year bans by the PCB who acted on the advice of a report submitted by a six-member inquiry committee set up to investigate the reasons for Pakistan’s abject showing on their recent tour to Australia.
Pakistan lost all their matches on the tour, which was also marred by a ball-tampering row involving Shahid Afridi.
Afridi was today fined and placed on probation for six months over the incident, while the Akmal brothers, Kamran and Umar, were fined at total of five million rupees (£40,000) on grounds of indiscipline.
