Wasim Akram backs T10 League

LAHORE: King of Swing Wasim Akram has come in favour of the T10 League saying that it has no clash with Pakistan Super League (PSL).

“Cricket shouldn’t be needlessly dragged into media battles,” the legendary bowler said in a tweet. “T10 is a new format and has no clash with PSL. Let’s support Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and other stakeholders and rise above our egos,” he tweeted.

Earlier, PCB Chairman Najam Sethi defending its support to the league, made his first statement regarding the T10 League that there was a valid reason for withholding support from the tournament. Later, after the sponsor of the League contacted the PCB and gave full details and disclosures, the PCB’s BoG determined that there was no conflict of interest with PSL.
