Najam Sethi informs friends and superiors that there will be no free PSL passes.

Najam Sethi, the chairman of the PCB Management Committee, issued an appeal on Friday urging individuals to avoid from requesting favours for themselves, such as free PSL tickets and favours for any player’s selection.

In a tweet, the PCB president pleaded with his close friends and public figures “NOT to ask for complimentary tickets/passes to PSL matches starting next month.”

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) of the National Assembly, which audits PCB, urged us to stop doing this, the speaker said.

1) I am making a personal request to all friends and high-ups NOT to ask for free tickets/passes to PSL matches starting next month. The Public Accounts Committee of National Assembly that audits PCB has warned us to desist from this practise!

Additionally, Sethi asked that no one contact him about hiring an unworthy individual or adding a player to the club.

He stated: “Additionally, I am pleading with my friends and superiors not to engage in sifarish in the selection of any player, coach, etc., or to provide employment or assistance to anybody who is not deserving. PCB must be effective since it competes with the best professional organisations in the world.”

2) I am also requesting friends and high-ups not to do sifarish for selection of any player or coach, etc, or to give employment or facilitation to any undeserving person. PCB competes with top professional organisations in the world and cannot afford to be inefficient.
