KARACHI: Star all-rounder Shahid Khan Afridi came in defense of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) against James Faulkner’s late payment allegations on Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 7’s management.
Taking to Twitter, Afridi said Faulkner made ‘baseless allegations’ and tried to taint Pakistan’s brand.
“Disappointed with James Faulkner comments who reciprocated Pakistan’s hospitality & arrangements by leveling baseless allegations. We all have been treated with respect & never ever our payments have been delayed. No one should be allowed to taint Pakistan, Pakistan cricket, and the HBL PSL brand,” he wrote.
On early Saturday, Faulkner left for Australia citing late payments by the PSL 7 management. The Australian cricketer was due to complete the whole season for Quetta Gladiators. He reportedly destroyed the hotel’s property and also misbehaved with the airport staff before leaving.
Taking action against the cricketer, PCB banned him from future PSL events.
