Pakistan's senior Test players, Danish Kaneria and Shahid Afridi , could face disciplinary action from their national Cricket Board for voicing dissent in media which amounts to violation of the code of conduct in their central contracts.
Shafqat Naghmi, the Chief Operating Officer of the Pakistan Cricket Board, told a news agency that the PCB was examining the statements of both the players regarding their central contracts but personally felt they were against the code of conduct.
"If some player has any problems with his categorisation in the new central contracts system he should come and talk to us. Danish came to me and complained and I told him he was demoted because his performances against South Africa and India were not satisfactory," Naghmi said.
"But we can't have players voicing their dissent or making controversial statements in the media," he added.
While Kaneria who has played 51 Tests said he was frustrated and embarrassed at being bracketed with players who have played lesser cricket than him, Afridi hits the bulls eye by claiming there was a lack of unity and spirit in the national team due to the attitude of some players. |
