Unfortunately the Pakistan Cricket Board confirmed it had rescinded its permission for Fakhar to play the remaining games for the Heat.

Zaman, along with all Pakistan players currently involved in the BBL, have been summonsed to return home immediately to prepare for the Pakistan Super League that starts next week. 

We are disappointed that he won’t be able to play for us and he is disappointed he won’t have the opportunity to get some more games in for us. 

He asked us to thank the fans for their support and wish the team all the best for the remaining three games.

We thank him for making the commitment to come to Australia at short notice, and wish him all the best with his cricket going forward.
