Pakistan Cricket Board Demands $10,000 Per Player for NOC in Abu Dhabi T10 League

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has taken such a step before the Abu Dhabi T10 League, which can make it difficult for many Pakistani players to play in the tournament. According to the report, the board has demanded $10,000 (about Rs. 94.4 million) from the league organizers in exchange for a No Objection Certificate (NOC) for each Pakistani player. Only a few days are left for the tournament to start. This unexpected condition has increased the teams'trouble. The Abu Dhabi T10 League is scheduled to start on 7 November. Five out of six teams in the draft had selected Pakistani players. The organizers had applied for NOCs for these players immediately after the draft, but the Pakistan Cricket Board put forward the payment condition earlier this week. The franchises are in a dilemma due to the short time available. They have the option of paying extra money or replacing Pakistani players with other cricketers. The report also claims that the NOCs are ready to negotiate with the league to release their salaries.
