“Riaz Hassan was banned for three years due to disciplinary violation. However, Hassan contacted ACB and sought mercy while expressing regret over his previous actions and violations. Taking that into consideration and based on section 30 of the principles of Discipline Committee, approved by CEO and endorsed by ACB Chairman, he was pardoned his remainder of the time,” read ACB Discipline Committee decision.

The Board further said that in addition to the HR principles, the Afghanistan Cricket Board also has disciplinary rules for player violations that apply to their intentional and unintentional mistakes.

Meanwhile, the ACB said Tuesday that all National Team players were tested for COVID-19 fortunately, “all players tested negative.”

The players were tested upon the completion of a recently concluded training camp as an added precautionary measure to fight the spread of the Coronavirus, the ACB tweeted.
