The PCB has issued a legal notice to South African cricketer Corbin Bosch for breaching his contract, after he withdrew from the PSL 10 to join the IPL. Bosch’s departure could have repercussions as the PSL 10 approaches, starting on April 11 with 34 matches scheduled until May 18.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has issued a legal notice to South African cricketer Corbin Bosch for allegedly violating his contractual obligations. Bosch was selected by the Peshawar Zalmi in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 10 draft that took place in January. However, he subsequently withdrew from participating after being picked by the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) as a replacement for the injured Lizaad Williams.
In a statement released by the PCB, it was noted that Bosch was chosen during the PSL Player Draft held in Lahore on January 13 and that the legal notice has been communicated through his agent. The PCB has requested an explanation for Bosch’s withdrawal from his professional commitments. The board is anticipating Bosch’s response within the outlined time frame.
The PCB further highlighted the potential consequences stemming from Bosch’s departure from the PSL. Bosch, who made his international debut last December, has played only two One Day Internationals (ODIs) and one Test match to date. The PSL 10 tournament is scheduled to begin on April 11, featuring an opening match between Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. Across its duration, the tournament will feature six teams and a total of 34 matches, concluding on May 18.
In summary, the PCB’s legal notice to Corbin Bosch highlights issues of contractual compliance and commitment within professional cricket. As Bosch navigates this situation, the board’s expectations for his response remain clear. With the PSL 10 fast approaching, it will be crucial for all players to adhere to their agreed terms to ensure a smooth tournament.
