Lahore, Feb 19 (UNI) Australia all-rounder James Faulkner on Saturday pulled out from the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL), citing payment issues. The left-arm pacer, who has been part of Quetta Gladiators in the PSL, blamed the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for not honoring his financial obligations. Taking to Twitter, Faulkner said: \u201cI apologise to the Pakistan cricket fans. Unfortunately I\u2019ve had to withdraw from the last 2 matches and leave the PSL due to the PCB not honouring my contractual agreement\/payments. I\u2019ve been here the whole duration and they have continued to lie to me. \u201cIt hurts to leave as I wanted to help to get international cricket back in Pakistan as there is so much young talent and the fans are amazing. But the treatment I have received has been a disgrace from the PCB and PSL.\u201d However, the PCB denied Faulkner\u2019s allegations and said: \u201cThe PCB and Quetta Gladiators have regretfully taken note of James Faulkner\u2019s false and misleading accusations and will shortly be releasing a detailed statement on the matter.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
