When South African all-rounder Corbin Bosch decided to play for the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) instead of the Pakistan Super League (PSL), he ran afoul of the PCB. The PCB recently issued a legal notice against the 30-year-old for his abrupt departure from the competition.
Corbin Bosch, who was also scheduled to play for the Peshawar Zalmi in the PSL, was asked to respond by the PCB.
Lizaad Williams was replaced in the Mumbai Indians roster prior to the 2025 Indian Premier League by Corbin Bosch, one of the Proteas’ future fast bowling all-rounders. In a report published by Cricket Pakistan, the all-rounder eventually explained to the PCB why he decided to leave the league, stating that he wanted to put his career first and play for a more successful team like the Mumbai Indians.
“Bosch explained to Pakistani officials that his choice was not intended to be disrespectful to the PSL. He stated that he had to put his future first because the Mumbai Indians are not only a formidable IPL team but also own teams in several other competitions, which may greatly advance his career, according to the source.
Will Bosch be barred from the PSL?
According to the source, officials are also debating Bosch’s future in light of this decision. It turns out that some officials are thinking about excluding him from the PSL for the upcoming seasons, while others are still opposing this idea because it can have an impact on other players’ participation.
According to some quarters, Bosch should be barred from PSL competitions going forward in order to prevent others, and the league’s reputation is of utmost importance. Others, on the other hand, think that banning gamers could give the wrong impression. Rather, they propose a symbolic punishment to settle the issue. In the upcoming days, the PCB is anticipated to reach a decision,” the report continued.
