The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has firmly dismissed the circulating reports about establishing a disciplinary committee.

The PCB in a statement clarified, "No disciplinary committee has been formed, nor has any decision been made to take action against any cricketer."

The PCB further stated, "The news about the formation of the committee and the task of making a report are baseless and contrary to the facts. The news regarding the imposition of bans and fines on players is fabricated."

Recent local media reports suggested that both foreign head coaches of the Pakistan team, Gary Kirsten for white-ball cricket and Jason Gillespie for Tests, had advised the PCB to refrain from disciplinary actions against players to allow them to focus on the upcoming international season.
