Just to be clear that pakistani players are not officially banned. The ipl franchise owners have burned their hands once trying to handle the unreliable player commitment ethics and tantrums. So they choose not to invest in risky assets. Purely business nothing personal.
PCB kept blackmailing by give statements about revoking NOCs, so IPL owners got tired of these stunts so they have totally stopped investing on them.As time went pn PCB realized that IPL is doing fine without Pakistan players.They now have no card to use other than MOU and soon that also will be over.
