"The decision has been made in the best interest of the players as well as to continue to enhance the credibility and reputation of the new domestic structure, which has been widely covered and reported across all media outlets," it added.
The news is a significant blow to the T10 tournament in which several players are Pakistani. While Shahid Afridi and Imran Nazir won't be affected as they have retired from Pakistan cricket, those affected include Mohammad Hafeez, Imad Wasim, Faheem Ashraf, Mohammad Irfan, Shoaib Malik and Sohail Tanvir among others.
