LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to cut the salaries of the national team players for their unimpressive performance in the T20 World Cup 2024.
Reports say that the players who have signed a contract with the board will have their salaries reduced while their categories will remain the same.
A number of popular players have expressed reservations over the drastic pay cut and most are unlikely to sign central contracts for 2024-25.
The salaries of players including captain Babar Azam included in the A category of the central contract will be reduced from Rs 60 lakh to Rs 40 lakh.
On the other hand, the board has refused to issue No Objection Certificates (NOCs) to players who are part of teams in all three formats of cricket to avoid possible injuries and workload.
It may be recalled that Pakistan faced an early exit from the T20 World Cup 2024 as they failed to even qualify for the Super Eight of the mega cricket event.
