Domestic cricket ban for Inzamam

"Cricket is our bread and butter. This is a violation of our fundamental rights," said batsman Imran Farhat.
Abdul Razzaq, Shabbir Ahmed, Taufiq Umar and Azhar Mahmood were the other Pakistan players involved in the ICL, which featured six teams and was bankrolled by broadcaster Zee Telefilms.

"It is a policy decision that players who play in unauthorised leagues cannot be allowed to play in any domestic competition organised by the PCB.
"We cannot allow violation of our rules and regulations by anyone. We don't think it is a harsh decision," said PCB domestic general manager Shafiq Ahmed.
