PCB postponed the National Junior Championship just a day after it started, know the big reason here
18 regional teams participate in this domestic tournament of Pakistan. PCB (Image Credit- Twitter) Just a day after the start of the National Junior Championship, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to postpone it. The participants and officials of the tournament have been informed about its postponement by PCB. On the other hand, PCB said in a short press release regarding the sudden postponement of the tournament that due to unavoidable circumstances, the tournament is being postponed with immediate effect. It is worth noting that a lot of money was spent by PCB to gather the participants of the tournament. Furthermore, a Pakistan Cricket Board confidant revealed that PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi had received several complaints that participants in the tournament had taken part with fake documentation, which could have led to problems in the selection of teams as well as the underlying issue of age fraud. This PCB confidant was quoted by News18 as saying- Junior tournaments are considered by the board as the backbone of preparing the right talent for first-class cricket and international performances. This is why despite the long selection process, Mohsin Naqvi got upset when he received several complaints, some of which were valid. PCB may suffer financial loss It is worth mentioning that 18 regional teams of the country participate in this National Junior Championship of Pakistan. And the PCB brings the players who perform well in this to First Class Cricket, from where the door to the National Team opens. However, now these 18 teams were taken to training centres where training took place and the players were provided with food, accommodation and transport facilities apart from kits and daily allowances, the total amount of which was reportedly in the millions of rupees. But this now only seems to be causing a financial loss to the PCB.
