Peshawar Zalmi: Haider Ali, Umaid Asif suspended from PSL 6 final

LAHORE, Jun 24 (APP): Peshawar Zalmi duo of Haider and Umaid have been suspended from Thursday’s Pakistan Super League (PSL) 6 final against Multan Sultans after they admitted to charges of violating the PSL 6 Health and Safety Protocols by meeting people from outside their designated bio-secure bubble and also failing to maintain the prescribed social distancing.

The incident happened on Wednesday and the decision was made early Thursday morning by the Tournament Covid-19 Management panel comprising Barrister Salman Naseer (PCB, Chief Operating Officer) and Babar Hamid (Director – Commercial, and HBL PSL 6 head).

The two cricketers were found not to have interacted with any other squad members at any time after the incident and have been placed in room isolation.
