PCB Match Refree Fined Azam Khan 50% Of His Match Fees
The Pakistan Cricket Board is often in the news for one reason or the other. Sometimes in the process of a decision, sometimes due to performance, the PCB remains shadowed in the discussion. Recently, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) took a U-turn on its decision.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has waived off 50 per cent of the match fee imposed on batsman Azam Khan for showing the Palestine flag on his bat during a domestic match. The decision was taken on Tuesday, a day after the PCB took action and fined 100 batsmen.
Azam Khan, the son of former Pakistan captain Moin Khan, was fined 50 per cent of his match fee by the PCB match referee for refusing to remove a Palestine sticker on his bat. Meanwhile, the PCB has taken a U-turn on its decision.
The PCB recently said that 50 per cent of the fine imposed on Azam Khan by the match officials has been reviewed and waived by the Pakistan Cricket Board.
Azam Khan was found to have breached Article 2.4 of the PCB Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel after failing to follow the umpire’s instructions during a match. Despite this, the PCB did not give any reason behind halving the fine and did not say whether Azam has agreed to remove the sticker from his bat in further matches of the tournament.
