Pakistan’s chaotic T20 World Cup campaign in the US is set to trigger a stir in the country’s cricket board and lead to the formulation of a code of conduct for players, who are attracting criticism for taking their families along and making paid appearances at promotional events. during the tournament. A reliable source in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) confirmed that chairman Mohsin Naqvi is furious with the performance of some senior officials and held them responsible for the indiscipline prevailing in the team, which could not go beyond the league stage.

“You can expect the PCB to lose senior management level employees and also enforce some strict policies for players in the future,” the source said.

He said a policy decision on players not being allowed to have their families at the ICC and other important events is also expected to be announced soon by the PCB as part of its clean-up operation.

“The fact that so many players not only took their wives and children to the World Cup, but also had their parents, brothers, etc. staying at the team hotel, made the president unhappy,” said the source.

He said when questions were asked about who gave permission to the players to take all their family members on tour, it turned out that some senior board officials were behind this decision.

“Some of these managers are not professionals, but fans of the players, and they made many concessions to them that eventually led to the World Cup disaster,” the source said.

He said the PCB chief has now asked for a performance appraisal report of all high-level officials as he is also dissatisfied with the progress of work for the ICC Champions Trophy scheduled for early next year in Pakistan.
