Basit Ali removed from junior coaching job

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman, Shaharyar Mohammad Khan, has relieved Basit Ali from his duties in the women's team and junior team. The Chairman's decision came after he had separate meetings with Basit Ali and Mahmood Hamid in Karachi following an alleged brawl between the two. Although the two had reconciled, Basit Ali admitted to physically harm Mahmood Hamid, a PCB spokesman said.
The PCB Chairman has accordingly withdrawn Basit Ali from the currently sensitive assignments with the woman's and junior teams. However, the Chairman has noted that there would be no general ban on Basit Ali's future coaching assignments with PCB or other teams.
