PCB, led by Mohsin Naqvi, who denies revealing the financial information to the public domain, has moved to the Islamabad High Court to put the commission’s directives in halt.
PIC, in the same order, also asked the Pakistan Cricket Board to show the details of the players and officials who travelled to this year's T20 World Cup, and the amount the board invested to upgrade the Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad.
What does PCB say in response?
According to a DAWN report published on August 4, PCB wants relief from the order on the grounds of the Right of Access to Information Act, 2017, express exemptions protecting personal privacy, confidential contractual arrangements, commercially sensitive information and third-party interests under Section 16.
In a petition filed through Advocate Kashif Ali Malik, demanded the details of the board’s annual budgets for the financial years 2023 to 2025, and the detailed breakdown of expenses, travel expenditure for the 2026 T20 World Cup, and details of the board’s audit report.
Why does PCB not want to disclose the financial reports in the public domain?
Against PIC’s directives, the cricket board claimed that the board operates in a highly competitive area of the sector without receiving any funds from the federal government or the Consolidated Fund.
As a major part of the revenue depends on commercial interests, the cricket board is feared to lose ground significantly in the international market if its financial breakdown comes into the public domain. Therefore, PCB asks the court to provide them interim relief.
