Overview

  • PCB plans to strip the 3% ICC revenue-share clause from new central contracts, ending roughly 6 crore PKR in annual payouts to contracted players.
  • New central contracts are expected before the Asia Cup, with senior stars Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan at risk of exclusion over recent form struggles.
  • Legal complexities around existing agreements may delay outright removal of the ICC-share clause, making the upcoming cycle likely its final inclusion.
  • The board has withheld shirt-logo sponsorship fees for several months, arguing that other national boards do not compensate players for logos.
  • Officials frame the measures as part of a performance-linked accountability drive following Pakistan’s poor results across Test, ODI and T20 formats.
