PCB has Cancelled NOCs for Shaheen, Rizwan, and Babar

Pakistan Cricket Board has officially denied NOCs for three star cricketer's in which Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohammad Rizwan, and Babar Azam. 

Recently, PCB has introduced a new policy regarding the Pakistani players contract with franchise cricket. Now, PCB will allow players to participate in only two leagues per year. This step was taken to safeguard players from fatigue and workload. Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohamed Rizwan, and Babar Azam was not allowed to participate in Global T20 League. PCB wanted to save these main players for the upcoming important assignments like Champions Trophy.

Because Last year, Naseem Shah was not able to play in ODI World Cup 2023 due to injury. Shaheen Shah Afridi was also red didn't able to participate in 2022 T20 World Cup due to some serious injury. Pakistan Cricket Board has also cancelled the NOC of Naseem Shah for playing in The Hundred. Naseem Shah was all set to play for Birmingham Phoenix in The Hundred. Although, some of Pakistani players are still playing in few leagues. Haris Rauf is currently playing in the Major League Cricket. Haris Rauf has played three matches in the ongoing MLC. He only managed to took two wickets. Haris Rauf is having a bad patch in the Major League Cricket. He was playing in the MLC since a horrible T20 World Cup campaign ended. On the other hand, All Rounder Shadab Khan and Mohammad Haris is playing in the Lanka Premier League.

Shadab khan is having an incredible LPL Season. He is currently the leading wicket taker in the Lanka Premier League. He didn't performed in the last few international matches for Pakistan. But, he is well and truly back in the form. Shadab Khan is currently playing for Colombo Striker's. Mohammed Haris, Mohammed Hasnain, and Salman Ali Agha is playing for Kandy Falcons. Mohammed Haris has already played 8 matches in the ongoing LPL season in which he managed to score 152 runs. He only scored one fifty in this LPL season. His average is below 20 in the LPL 2024. Mohammed Haris didn't stayed on a wicket for a long time. But, he has the ability to play an impactful knock in this shortest format of the game. Mohammed Haris has smashed 9 sixes and 17 fours in the ongoing LPL season. Salman Ali Agha is only managed to play one match in this LPL season. Beside this, fast bowler Mohammad Hasnain has played three matches for kandy falcons in which he only took two wickets. So Overall, Pakistani player's performance in the Lanka Premier League has been very disappointed except Shadab Khan.

In order to keep main players fit, PCB didn't gave NOCs to Naseem Shah, Shaheen Shah, Mohammad Rizwan, and Babar Azam.
