PCB raises participation fees and mandates contracts for department cricket

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has significantly increased participation fees for this season's President's Trophy and President's Cup, nearly tripling the costs. This overhaul aims to establish mandatory contracts for players as part of a broader restructuring of department cricket. The changes are expected to impact how the teams operate and the financial commitments required from players. Further details on the implementation timeline and specific contract terms are yet to be released.
