The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has placed Haider Ali under immediate provisional suspension following confirmation of a criminal investigation being conducted by Greater Manchester Police, related to an incident during the Pakistan Shaheens' tour of England.

Greater Manchester Police confirmed that they received a rape report on 4 August, concerning an alleged incident on 23 July in Manchester. The 24-year-old was arrested and subsequently bailed pending further enquiries.

The PCB emphasized that it respects the legal process in the UK and will continue to cooperate fully, including providing legal support to Haider Ali. The disciplinary committee has considered further disciplinary action in light of its Code of Conduct once the investigation is complete and facts are established.

PCB is committed to support the UK and the suspension underscores this. That being said, they are distancing themselves from the matter until the process and legal integrity of the matter is complete.
