Internet Desk: Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman turned around 180 degrees now by saying that ICC will not fine PCB heavily if they opt out of the World T20 in India next April.

Khan made it clear before that Pakistan’s decision of participating in the World T20 is awaiting for Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s approval and the ICC won’t fine them if they pull out. The 81-year old did not disclose the amount of the fine.

PCB Chief denied the fact about ICC penalizing them and PCB are waiting for Prime Minister’s approval. He mentioned all these as rubbish and not at all true.

Arch-rivals India and Pakistan are scheduled to play against each other on March 19 at Dharamshala.

The tournament will be staged across eight venues from March 8 to April 3. A total of 58 matches- 35 men’s and 23 women’s- will be played during the 27-day tournament.
