The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) terminated Haris Rauf’s central contract and barred him from participating in foreign franchise T20 leagues until June 2024 due to his withdrawal from the Test series against Australia.

PCB denies NOC extension for Haris Rauf, Usama Mir, and Zaman Khan in BBL 2023-24, prioritizing their fitness for the New Zealand T20Is, amid ongoing challenges during the Australia tour.

Mohammad Hafeez, the recently appointed Director of Cricket for Pakistan, emphasized that No Objection Certificates (NOCs) for participation in foreign leagues will be granted to contracted players contingent upon their dedication to the national team, particularly in the build-up to the upcoming T20 World Cup next year.

The Pakistan Cricket Board is expected to delay issuing Haris Rauf’s No-Objection Certificate (NOC) for BBL participation until at least December 11, potentially affecting Melbourne Stars’ plans. Rauf’s decision to decline participation in Pakistan’s Test series in Australia and ongoing contract discussions highlight broader concerns among centrally contracted players regarding league participation limits.
