Some star players of Pakistan are currently doing wonders in the Big Bash League running in Australia, but now these players will have to leave the league in the middle and return to their homes immediately. The reason for this is the decree of the Pakistan Cricket Board. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has asked all its national players participating in the Big Bash League (BBL) to return home immediately. Why did the board say so? The reason behind this is the Pakistan Super League.
The Pakistan Super League is starting from January 27 and the board wants the players to get full-time for the preparations for the 7th season of the league. For this reason, the PCB has asked Muhammad Hasnain, Fakhar Zaman, Harris Rauf, and Shadab Khan to return home immediately.
