The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has officially granted No Objection Certificates (NOCs) to three players—Usama Mir, Haris Rauf, and Zaman Khan—for their inclusion in the upcoming 13th season of the Big Bash League (BBL).

These NOCs have been customised for specific matches rather than covering the entire duration of the event.

Haris Rauf and Usama Mir have been issued NOCs for a combined total of five matches, while Zaman Khan has received an NOC for four matches. All these games are scheduled to take place from December 7th to December 28th.

“The board has issued the NOCs considering the workload of players and the future tours programme of the national men’s team,” the press release issued by PCB read.

“The PCB understands that this decision is in the best interests of all the stakeholders involved while balancing the importance of game time with workload management,” the press release added.
