The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to field in two teams in the inaugural Champions League Twenty20 tournament to be held in India from September 29 to October 8.
“The Sialkot Stallions have been invited for the event,” he said, adding, “We are also thinking of sending two teams, but we still don’t know as so far we have not seen the details.” Interestingly, flamboyant opener Imran Nazir and pacer Rana Naved-ul-Hasan, who featured in the rebel Indian Cricket League, were part of the Stallions squad last year and helped the side, led by Pakistan skipper Shoaib Malik to win the Twenty20 title.
Incidentally, IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi and BCCI are strongly opposed to the idea of fielding in teams which has links with ICL players and this has even led to a dispute with the England and Wales Cricket Board. So this situation will be quite interesting as it develops.
