After the incident of Zulkernain Haider, Pakistan Cricket Board has barred its players from Using Face Book and Twitter. Haider ran away from Dubai and went to UK and apply for asylum. The players who are contracted with PCB were restricted from using the social websites like Face Book and Tweeter. Manager Intikhab Alam said that the measures have been taken for the safety of the players. Players are also asked to minimize their activities while they are not playing.
