Gen Tauqir Zia, former chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), has endorsed the view of former limited-overs captain Shahid Afridi that a players’ association should be formed.
“Like other countries there is no harm in forming a players’ association in Pakistan too,” the former PCB chairman told a private TV channel on Tuesday.
“However, if everyone’s viewpoint is duly accommodated there would be no need for such an association,” Tauqir commented.
“A communication gap between the PCB and players leads to demands for the formation of such an association,” he lamented.
Tauqir suggested such an association will sort out such problems in future.

The former PCB chief remarked that the chairman should listen to the point of view of the captain, coach and manager to avoid disharmony amongst players and officials.
He said Afridi should have approached the chairman first. “Since Afridi is a very senior cricketer, he should not have violated the code of conduct in the first place.”—APP
