Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has suspended the ongoing National U-13 and U-16 One-Day Tournaments after the board became aware that some over-aged cricketers had been participating in the events taking place in Karachi and Multan, respectively. PCB has decided to conduct a third round of bone age verification tests, following which the teams may be revised before both tournaments commence next week from scratch.

According to PCB, bone age tests in Multan, where each Cricket Association has fielded two teams each, will be conducted on Tuesday and Wednesday, while tests on 150 cricketers (including playing members, traveling reserves and reserve pool of players per side) participating in the U13 event in Karachi will be held on Tuesday.
