It is pertinent to mention here that Zaman Khan participated in the BBL 2023-24 with teammates Haris Rauf and Usama Mir.
The trio, who are not part of Pakistan’s Test squad for the ongoing three-match series against Australia, had requested the board to extend their NOC for two more matches.
However, their request to play additional games was rejected by the PCB.
