KARACHI: Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Dr. Nasim Ashraf cleared that he would not stop the cricketers to play Indian league but they would no more be eligible to represent Pakistan in case of playing Indian cricket league (ICL).

Talking with media during the training camp of the national team at the National Stadium, Karachi, Dr. Nasim Ashraf said that the Indian cricket league has no importance and only the former players are participating in it.

He said that this event has not been approved by the ICC and if the ICC approves it then the PCB may also reconsider its policy.
