Karachi : The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) may release the suspended payments of a wicketkeeper Zulqarnain Haider.
The PCB had held up all payments of Haider last year after he fled the Pakistan team hotel in Dubai during the one-day series against South Africa, saying that he had received a threat for not helping in the match-fixing.
Sources have revealed that Haider sought the help of the Interior Minster Rehman Malik to recover his payments from the PCB.
"When Zulqarnain met with Rehman Malik he requested him to ask the PCB to release his payments from last year's series in England and in the UAE. Rehman Malik recently during his meeting with the PCB Chairman, Ijaz Butt told him that the board should consider helping out Zulqarnain as since he was not playing any cricket because of his case and was facing a financial crisis," The Nation quoted a source, as saying.
The source also said that Haider is ready to face consequences of a disciplinary action taken by the PCB against him.
The board has formed a disciplinary committee to probe the case and record Zulqarnain's statement. ANI
