Skipper Babar Azam, pacer Shaheen Afridi, and wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan are unlikely to get no-objection certificates NOC for Global T20.
Sources claimed despite the Canadian league not clashing with any series, the Pakistan Cricket Board is not in favor of issuing NOC.
NOC will not be issued for all format players due to policy, sources claimed.
PCB is not in favor of giving NOC to all format players due to a busy international schedule as recently, Naseem Shah also did not get NOC for The Hundred due to being an all-format player.
Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Nawaz, Asif Ali, and Iftikhar Ahmed also have contracts in the league.
Global T20 Canada has not yet received approval from ICC sources. Due to several issues, the ICC has stopped the approval of the league. After the approval of the league, the NOC of the players will be formally decided.
