Issue of central contracts to be resolved after WC: Sethi

KARACHI: Najam Sethi, Chairman of the executive committee Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), on Friday said that the issue of central contracts is not a serious issue and the matter will be reviewed after the ICC World Cup 2015 ends.

Addressing the media at the National Stadium Karachi, he said that the decisions of the selectors for the World Cup team should be accepted by all and that interference by the chairman or anyone else would complicate matters.

Regarding the Pakistan Super League, Sethi went on to say that it would definitely take place and that they hope it will be held in the country. However, he added that international players were asking for too much money to come to Pakistan so it was likely that the tournament would either be held in Dubai or elsewhere.

He further said that players of the Pakistan team will also participate in the Indian Premier League after the 2015 Pakistan-India series scheduled for December.

He also said that according to the Future Tours Program, Bangladesh is supposed to come to Pakistan to play a series.
