The Pakistani cricket council (PCB) has been interpreting the dough of Haider Ali after it turned out that the 24 -year -old was the subject of criminal investigation of the Great Manchester Police (GMP) in the UK. The suspension, confirmed PCB in an official statement, will remain in place until the outcome of the investigation.

It is understood that the investigated incident took place during the recent tour of England in Pakistan Shaheens, which was closed at the beginning of this week.

“The PCB has been informed about the criminal investigation currently conducted by the Greater Manchester police, which includes a cricket Haider Ali. The investigation concerns the incident that allegedly occurred during the recent Shaheens Pakistani in England,” the council said.
“PCB fully respects the legal procedures and processes of the United Kingdom and recognizes the importance of allowing the investigation to be carried out at the right time.
