Things have turned sour between Zimbabwean fast bowler Blessing Muzarabani and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and the Pakistan Super League (PSL) issue is now getting bigger day by day.
The controversy started when Blessing Muzarabani decided not to play for Islamabad United in the ongoing PSL 2026 and instead joined Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) for the ongoing IPL 2026 in India. PCB and PSL did not like this decision.
Blessing Muzarabani demands lifting of PSL ban
For his sudden move, the PCB banned the Zimbabwean fast bowler from the Pakistan Super League (PSL) for two years citing “fundamental failure to honor agreed commitments”.
Now, Blessing Muzarabani’s agent has criticized the PCB for not handling the matter properly. He revealed that Islamabad United had announced the signing of the player, but no official contract had been signed between the two parties at that time.

The agents are now asking the Pakistan Cricket Board and the Pakistan Super League to lift the ban, as without knowledge of the full situation they believe the punishment is too harsh.
