Terming the International Cricket Council's decision to shift the 2011 World Cup matches from Pakistan as "hasty", former Cricket Board Chairman Shaharyar Khan said the strained relations between the PCB and the ICC played a big role in the it.

Shaharyar, who was Chairman between 2003 and 2006 and is a former foreign secretary and retired career diplomat, also said the PCB's stance on the Indian Cricket League players perhaps did not go down well with the ICC or the Indian Board.
