Second edition of Afghanistan Premier League T20 has been postponed to next year, officials said on Thursday.
Afghanistan Cricket Board in a statement said that the decision was taken over Snixer Sports’ failure to pay the complete rights fees of the first edition as per the fees and payment schedule of the agreement and concerns about risks for integrity of the league posed by people connected to the company.
The board said that it asked Afghanistan’s Attorney General’s Office to fully investigate the “administrative allegations of corruption” in the league.
The inaugural Afghanistan Premier League was held in Sharjah from 5-21 October, 2018. Five teams took part in the tournament with Mohammad Nabi-led Balkh Legend winning the title.
