The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has shut the office in Lahore after a senior member tested positive for COVID-19. The PCB shut its headquarters at Lahore as a safety measure and asked the employees to work from home. A non-playing member who was tested positive for COVID-19 was allowed to leave the bubble and fly back to Lahore from Karachi. The member though wasn’t a part of any coaching staff.
Earlier, the Pakistan Super League was postponed for an indefinite time with immediate effect after the rise in COVID-19 cases within the league. The board has faced a lot of criticism after the PSL was postponed.
“Some players freely went outside of the bubble, whilst some people from outside came in and out of the bubble. What exactly was this bubble about?,” questioned the former captain Inzamam-ul-Haq said.
"The medical panel should be punished and I request the higher authorities because they played with the lives of the people... All the blame has been put on Wasim Khan and he has been asked to face everything. Who has brought Wasim Khan? Ehsan Mani (brought him). Where is Mani Sahab? Is this the responsibility of Wasim Khan to answer here? Ehsan Mani should give the answer," Shoaib Akhtar said in a video.
