  "textContent": "LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Monday imposed a one-year ban on Sri Lanka T20 team captain Dasun Shanaka after breaking away with the contract being dealt with him.\n\nShanaka unilaterally violated the PSL player registration contract on March 21, deciding not taking part in the PSL, according to the country’s cricket body.\n\nShanaka, following the PCB’s ban, will not be able to feature in the PSL 12th edition, though he apologised for breaching the player registration contract.\n\nPCB issued bans and suspensions against multiple players in the going PSL edition. Mostly related to contract breaches or code-of-conduct violations, especially involving PSL vs IPL commitments.\n\nEarlier, Zimbabwe origin Blessing Muzarabani also gained a two-year PSL ban after he withdrew from his PSL commitment to join an IPL franchise.\n\nLikewise, national team player Fakhar Zaman was also given a two-match suspension in PSL 11. He was accused of ball-tampering allegations, which was later upheld on appeal.\n\nThe PCB has taken similar actions beforehand as well. South Africa Corbin Bosch was previously banned for one year after leaving PSL contract to feature in the IPL.\n\nThe post PCB imposes PSL-12 edition ban on Sri Lank’s  Shanaka after cancelling contract appeared first on HUM News English.",
