PCB launches internal disciplinary inquiry amid reports about Imam, Rizwan

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has initiated an internal disciplinary examination following reports of "issues concerning discipline and conduct," according to a statement from the board's media director, Amir Mir. The inquiry has been prompted by media allegations involving former Test players Imamul Haq and Mohammad Rizwan. The PCB is currently reviewing the matter internally, adhering to its established regulations.
