No violation of contract: PCB official

Karachi, Feb 12: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Saturday dismissed accusations that it was breaching the contract it signed with its major sponsors of the forthcoming home series.

Zahid Bashir, marketing consultant of the PCB, said the board had not violated any contract while removing the sponsor's announcement board just outside the National Stadium premises. "We have everything in writing. That place was not for the sponsors," he said.

The representative of the sponsors had claimed on Friday that they were being denied of their right. "We respect our sponsors and not here to harass them. We are looking forward to a prosperous relationship with them. And for that the PCB will extend them full support," Bashir said.

According to the terms and conditions of the contract, the sponsors are not entitled to fix their series announcement board outside the National Stadium.
