Delhi: Taking a big decision, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has banned the use of the name “Pakistan” in all private cricket leagues. This step has been taken in the World Championship of Legends (WCL) recently due to a dispute between India and Pakistan.
PCB took a big decision
The reason for this decision is that in the WCL tournament, Indian players refused to play against the team called “Pakistan Champions”. PCB feels that this has damaged the image of the country. For this reason, no private institution will be able to use the name of Pakistan without permission.
According to sources related to PCB, there was a serious discussion on this subject in the Board of Directors meeting on Thursday. After that it was decided that in the future, no private event or league will not be allowed to use the name of Pakistan.
However, the current “Pakistan Legends” team playing in WCL has been given a one -time discount. This team will play the final match against South Africa on Saturday. After this, the use of this name will also be stopped.
Crescent used in many countries
According to reports, the names of Pakistan have been used in many private and low -profile leagues in places like Zimbabwe, Kenya and America. PCB is now strict on this.
Warning of legal action
Sources close to PCB said that if any organization uses the name of Pakistan without approval, then legal action will be taken against it. Only those events will be given this right which will be recognized and reliable by PCB.
