The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has barred players from performing push-ups as part of their celebration after winning matches, PCB Executive Committee Chairman Najam Sethi told a National Assembly committee on Wednesday.
Sethi’s revelation came as lawmakers raised questions during a meeting of the Inter-Provincial Coordination Committee over the cricket team performing push-ups after victory in international matches.
“Who were Misbah-ul-Haq and other players giving a message to by doing push-ups?” asked PML-N MNA Rana Muhammad Afzal.
He wondered why the players did push-ups when the team won and were silent when it lost.
