Karachi: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has given Javed Miandad, its Director Cricket Affairs, seven days to respond to a show cause notice for violating the terms of his employment contract.

Miandad slammed the PCB working on Thursday and claimed that 90 percent of the decisions taken by the authorities were erroneous and damaging the sport in the country.

He also claimed that he was not being consulted in important issues nor being given any authority by the Chairman Ijaz Butt and would again bring this to the notice of the Board’s chief patron, President Asif Zardari.

The Board on Thursday promptly sent a show cause notice to Miandad at his residential address in Karachi .

Well informed sources said there were several reasons for Miandad lashing out at the board policies.

“He had gone and met with the Chairman recently when the central contracts were announced and complained that the board should give a contract to his nephew, discarded Test batsman Faisal Iqbal,” one source told PTI.

“Miandad had met with Butt and complained that he was not consulted when the list of players for the central contracts were being finalised and than he complained that Faisal should have got a contract as well,” the source said. (PTI)
