LAHORE: Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) served a show-cause notice to Pakistani middle-order batsman Umar Akmal for violating the board’s code of conduct by attending a dance party, Samaa reported.

According to sources, Akmal had attended a dance party along with domestic cricketers in Hyderabad that drew the cricket board’s ire.

Also, he failed to find a place in Pakistan squad for the three-match T20 series against England.

Chief Selector Haroon Rashid said Umar Akmal was in contention for a place in the T20I squad, but he was not considered following the Board issuing him a show-cause notice.

“Umar Akmal had been penciled in for selection, but he has subsequently been dropped on instructions from the Board, as he has been issued with a show cause notice for bringing PCB and Pakistan Cricket into disrepute,” he said.
