The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announces the award of its Players Central Contracts for the year 2015-16 (July ‘15–June ‘16) to 27 players in four categories. This bunch is a blend of seasoned players with proven credentials and emerging talent with potential to represent Pakistan across three formats. The remunerations – both the monthly retainer as well as match fees – have been increased across the board along with restoring the win bonuses and performance incentives.
The Pakistan Cricket Board had issued Player Central Contracts in June 2015 for the term January 1-June 30th 2015. This was done to better align the Central Contract Term with the Cricket Season as well as the financial year.
At the time of issuing the contracts PCB had informed that the PCB Management and the Pakistani Players will be holding negotiations to further improve the existing central contract draft.
