The PCB has served a legal notice to Corbin Bosch for allegedly breaching his contract with Peshawar Zalmi after he withdrew to join the IPL. The notice requires Bosch to justify his actions. PSL 10 is set to begin on April 11, with 34 matches scheduled until May 18.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has issued a legal notice to South African cricketer Corbin Bosch regarding an alleged breach of his contractual obligations. Bosch was selected by the Peshawar Zalmi franchise in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 10 draft held in January. However, he subsequently withdrew to join the Indian Premier League (IPL) team Mumbai Indians as a replacement for the injured Lizaad Williams.
According to a PCB statement, Bosch was chosen in the Diamond category during the HBL PSL Player Draft on January 13. The legal notice was dispatched through his agent, requiring Bosch to justify his decision to withdraw from his professional commitments to PSL.
The PCB has detailed the potential consequences of Bosch’s absence from the tournament, which is set to begin on April 11. The board anticipates a timely response from Bosch concerning the legal notice. Bosch, who made his international debut in December, has participated in only two One Day Internationals and one Test match in his career.
The PSL 10 is scheduled to kick off with a match between defending champions Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. This year’s tournament will include six teams and a total of 34 matches, running from April 11 to May 18.
The PCB’s legal action against Corbin Bosch highlights the serious nature of contractual obligations in professional sports. Bosch’s decision to opt for the IPL over PSL could have significant ramifications, evidenced by the legal notice citing the need for justification. As the tournament approaches, the PCB awaits a response to ensure compliance with contractual terms, while the league itself promises an exciting series of matches.
