Shahid Afridi’s lawyer has called the Pakistan Cricket Board’s disciplinary process ”a sham” as it prepares to pass judgment on the former one-day and Twenty20 captain.
Afridi is due to appear before a disciplinary committee Wednesday after the allrounder criticized top PCB officials, and said he would retire. The board responded by canceling his central contract and revoking the paperwork which enables him to play county cricket in England for Hampshire.
Afridi’s lawyer Syed Zafar Ali criticized the disciplinary committee’s process in a letter to PCB legal adviser Tafazzul Rizvi _ a copy of which was obtained Sunday by The Associated Press.
Under the terms of a central contract, a Pakistan player is bound not to violate the PCB’s code of conduct, even after he announces his retirement. It is also mandatory for every player to get a No Objection Certificate from the board if he wishes to compete in any cricketing event abroad.
