South Africa pacer Corbin Bosch has been served a legal notice by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for alleged breach of contractual obligations to the board about the Pakistan Super League (PSL). Peshawar Zalmi picked Bosch in the Diamond category during PSL 10-player draft.

However, Corbin Bosch had also signed up for the IPL 2025 mega auction and went unsold. However, his teammate Lizaad Williams, who was bought by Mumbai Indians (MI) in the IPL 2025 auction, pulled out due to injury.

This led to MI signing up Corbin Bosch as a replacement for Williams for the IPL 2025 and as a result, Bosch pulled out of the PSL 2025.

This choice did not sit well with the PCB, and the board has now requested Corbin Bosch to explain his conduct. It should be noted that this year's PSL will compete directly with the IPL because both competitions will take place at the same time.

The IPL 2025 season will begin on March 22 and will last till May 25, 2025. On the other side, PSL 2025 will begin on April 11 and end on May 18.

"The legal notice was served through his agent, and the player has been asked to justify his actions of withdrawing from his professional and contractual commitments. The PCB management has also outlined the repercussions of his departure from the league and expects his response within the stipulated time frame. The PCB will not make any further comments on the matter," PCB's official statement said.

Bosch, a bowling all-rounder, has played one Test, and two ODIs for South Africa. He made his international debut in December and was included in the Proteas' 15-man Champions Trophy roster as a replacement for injured Anrich Nortje.
