PCB protests ICC poster excluding Pakistan captain
The Pakistan Cricket Board is upset because the International Cricket Council made a poster for the T20 World Cup that didn't include Pakistan's captain.
The poster only showed the captains of five other teams.
The PCB said this is not fair because Pakistan is a very important team in the World Cup.
They hope the ICC will fix the poster and include their captain.
This is not the first time this has happened; something similar occurred during the Asia Cup.
The ICC released a promotional poster for the T20 World Cup without Pakistan's captain.
The poster featured captains from India, South Africa, Australia, Sri Lanka, and England.
The PCB protested, citing Pakistan's rich legacy and importance in the World Cup.
The PCB had faced a similar issue during the Asia Cup promotional campaign.
The PCB is confident the ICC will include Pakistan's captain in future promotional materials.
