According to details, SLC is regularly seeking clearance from the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to sign on Pakistani players after the BCCI refused to give permission to 12 of its cricketers to play in the SLPL. Three big names Sources said that the former captains — Mohammad Yousuf, Younus Khan, Shahid Afridi — are now among the Pakistani cricketers who have signed contracts with the SLC for the league that starts from July 19.
