Pakistan cricketer Ahmed Shehzad has announced his withdrawal from the upcoming Cricket Champions Cup. The 32-year-old player took to the social media platform X to voice his frustration and disillusionment with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). Shehzad accused the PCB of "favoritism, false promises, and injustice" towards domestic players.

Scheduled to run from September 12 to 29, the tournament will feature matches across the 50-over, T20, and red-ball formats.
