KARACHI: Quetta Gladiators have replaced Akmal with Anwar Ali in the line-up for the HBL Pakistan Super League 2020 following the event’s technical committee’s approval.

The press release announcing Akmal’s suspension had said that Quetta Gladiators are “allowed to apply for Umar Akmal’s replacement in the HBL Pakistan Super League 2020.” The technical committee is chaired by PCB Chief Executive Wasim Khan and it includes Bazid Khan, Marina Iqbal, Sameer Khosa and Dr Sohail Saleem.
