Afghanistan pacer Naveen-ul-Haq has been served a 20-month ban from the International League T20 (ILT20), the league’s Disciplinary Committee announced on Monday. The Afghan pacer was a part of the Sharjah Warriors as a part of the ILT20 tourney.
Naveen-ul-Haq banned from ILT20
The ILT20’s three-member Disciplinary Committee which includes the league’s Chief Executive Officer David White, Head of Security and Anti-Corruption Col. Azam and Member Emirates Cricket Board Zayed Abbas separately heard both the parties i.e. Naveen and Sharjah Warriors and on examining the evidence before them conveyed its final verdict of a 20-month ban on Naveen.
CEO DP World ILT20 David White said, “We do not take pride in making this announcement but all parties are expected to comply with their contractual commitments and recognize that non-compliance can cause damage to the other party. Unfortunately, Naveen-ul-Haq failed to honour his contractual obligations with the Sharjah Warriors and as such the league had no option but to impose this 20-month ban on him.
“The disciplinary proceedings against Naveen were conducted in a transparent manner and both parties involved were given opportunities to prepare and present their submissions.”
