KARACHI: Pakistan
Cricket Board (PCB) on Tuesday allotted a show cause notice to star batsman Younis
Khan after he pull out from a Pakistan Cup following a riot with umpires which
resulted in a fine this weekend.
Younis
Khan objected umpiring decisions during his team Khyber Pukhtunkhwa’s (K-P)
matches in the Pakistan Cup one-day tournament currently held in Faisalabad.
On
Saturday match referee Azizur Rehman fined Younis 50 percent of his match fee
and summoned him for a disciplinary hearing. But Younis refused to attend the
hearing and pull out from the tournament in anger.
On
Monday Younis called PCB chairman Shaharyar Khan and expressed regret for his behavior,
agreeing to play the remaining matches, a PCB statement said. But the PCB,
apparently after strong reaction from former captain Javed Miandad and umpires,
stopped Younis from playing in the tournament and issued him a show cause
notice.
