Umpires complained

No ban at the moment

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) in its statement has made it clear that until they have no complaint again, they can keep bowling in the remaining PSL matches. But if there is a complaint again next time, they will be suspended from bowling and they will have to get approval from the ICC-recognized lab before starting bowling again.
