Former Test Cricketer Shahid Nazir has vowed legal action against Chief Selector, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), Moin Khan, for his alleged misconduct as manager of “Lahore Badshahs”, a team comprising national players, which competed in the wildcat Indian Cricket League (ICL).

He is bound to have our payments cleared from the ICL management “, Nazir said Meanwhile, Moin Khan was not available to comment on Shahid Nazir’s accusation.–SAMAA
