A Pakistani court yesterday left in place a ban on former cricket captain Shahid Afridi playing abroad, putting off ruling on his legal tussle with sporting authorities for at least a week. Afridi went to court after the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) punished him for allegedly breaching a code of conduct by announcing his retirement after he was dumped as one-day captain, and levelling allegations against the board. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/jun/shahidbhai.jpg" border="5" /> Shahid Afridi It suspended his central contract and revoked all his no-objection certificates (NOCs), which would have allowed him to play in England ufffd where he was due to represent Hampshire in the Twenty20 league ufffd and Sri Lanka. The Sindh high court in Karachi adjourned Afridi's case until June 16, when PCB officials are expected to justify their sanctions against the all-rounder before a two-member bench makes a decision. "The court has adjourned the hearing," PCB lawyer Tafazzul Rizvi told AFP after the session. "The decision means there is status quo on the case and we have been asked to submit a detailed reply to the petition filed by Afridi." Afridi's petition was filed after Pakistan coach Waqar Younis and manager Intikhab Alam described him as "immature and unwilling to listen" in tour reports leaked to the media and published in the Dawnu00a0newspaper this week.
