The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has fined Naseem Shah 20 million Pakistani rupees ($71,488) for breaching multiple clauses of his central contract and social media guidelines by writing a social media post critical of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz. The post, which was deleted soon after, questioned Nawaz's attendance at the opening match of the Pakistan Super League. Shah was issued a show-cause notice by the PCB, which is headed by Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, before it imposed the largest financial penalty in Pakistan cricket history. The 23-year-old player was found guilty of breaching these clauses and will be banned from associating with any player under the PCB's jurisdiction.
