PCB on Friday accepted the resignations of Mohammad Yousuf and Abdul Razzaq from a rebel Indian cricket league, clearing the way for them to be selected for the national team, an official said.

The pair were among 23 players who defected to the unrecognised Indian Cricket League (ICL) and were thus barred from playing in and for the country at any level.

Following their resignations, they “are now eligible to be selected for Pakistan’s international series in future,” Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) director human resources Wasim Bari told a foreign news agency. Twenty-one players had their bans suspended by Sindh High Court in February, making them eligible to play domestic cricket. Inzamam-ul-Haq, who is retired from international cricket and Saqlain Mushtaq, who now lives in England, did not seek to have their bans suspended.
