PSL hands two-year ban to Blessing Muzarabani
Zimbabwe pacer Blessing Muzarabani has been banned by the Pakistan Super League (PSL) for two years from participating in the league. Muzarabani has been handed the ban after he opted out of the tournament at the last moment to join the Indian Premier League. The Zimbabwe quick, who had initially gone unsold at both the IPL and PSL auctions, was roped in by Islamabad United as a replacement for West Indies pacer Shamar Joseph.
However, Muzarabani accepted a deal from Kolkata Knight Riders as a replacement for Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman, who had been released by the KKR following a controversy. Meanwhile, Muzarabani chose to play in IPL rather than PSL.
“Professionalism in franchise-based leagues requires participants to act with transparency and consistency. Entering into a conflicting engagement while a prior binding agreement subsists represents a departure from the expected standards of the game. Such conduct, if left unaddressed, erodes the reliability of dealings and the confidence that franchises, regulators, and stakeholders place in professional engagements,” a statement from the PSL read.
In the ongoing season of the IPL, Muzarabani has featured in two games for Kolkata Knight Riders, claiming the best figures of 4-41 against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
