Pakistan’s ICL players give up legal fight

Karachi: The Pakistani players, who joined the Indian Cricket League, have given up their legal battle against the Pakistani authorities for banning them from domestic tournaments.

“Obviously we have to earn our livelihood from somewhere besides the ICL. And since we can’t play in Pakistan we will remain busy until September playing league cricket,” former Test opener Imran Farhat said.

He said the players had dropped the idea of filing a case against the PCB for banning them from domestic cricket. “We are confident a solution would be found to this ICL issue sooner or later and time does not remain the same all the time. It will change for us as well. We didn’t want to antagonise the establishment by going to court,” he said.

He indicated that some efforts were being made to normalise relations between the board and the ICL rebel players. — PTI
