James Faulkner banned from participating in future PSL events

LAHORE, Feb 19 (SABAH): The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and Quetta Gladiators have issued the following statement after Mr James Faulkner made baseless allegations of non-payment and mistreatment during the Pakistan Super League 2022.

“The PCB and Quetta Gladiators are disappointed and dismayed with the reprehensible behavior of Mr James Faulkner, who was also part of the Abu Dhabi-leg of the HBL Pakistan Super League in 2021, and, along with all participants, has always been treated with utmost respect.

“In the seven years of the Pakistan Super League, no player has ever complained about the non-fulfillment of the PCB’s contractual obligations.

“Instead, all players have only praised and appreciated the efforts of the PCB to make their stay, appearance and participation as comfortable as practically possible.

This is evident that from the fact that most of these cricketers have continued to be part of the PCB’s marquee event since 2016 and have helped the PCB to make the PSL a strong and formidable brand as it stands today.
