Aleem Dar Resigns from Pakistan Selection Panel After T20 World Cup Exit; PCB Considers Player Fines

Following Pakistan's early exit from the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, Aleem Dar resigned from the national selection committee, citing dissatisfaction with internal decision-making and diminished influence. The Pakistan Cricket Board is considering fines of around PKR 5 million per player for underperformance. The team's results have drawn criticism from both the PCB and government officials, with calls for changes including the removal of captain Salman Agha and key players. Dar's departure marks the first significant fallout amid calls for broader reforms.
