LAHORE Pakistan fast bowler Rana Naved-ul-Hasans appeal has been adjourned to September 25 by the appellate tribunal headed by retired Justice Irfan Qadir. Naved filed an appeal against the one-year ban imposed on him by the PCB. But to get his ban reverted he was desperate to meet the PCB chairman and the chances are that he would be meeting Ijaz Butt on September 7. The chairman called me and said that he had been busy but will meet me on September 7 now, Naved was quoted by Cricinfo. The hearing has been adjourned till September 25. Im still hopeful something can be worked out as I want to play for Pakistan again. Naved, along with several of his team-mates, was punished by the PCB following the tour of Australia in 2009-10. He was banned for one year and slapped with a Rs 2 million fine. All the punished players, except Naved, have met the PCB again and had their bans revoked and fines lifted or reduced. Shoaib Malik and Mohammad Yousuf, both were banned, have since been recalled to the Pakistan side as well. The tribunal was due to hear Naveds appeal on Saturday, but it had asked him to meet with Butt before that. Naved said he had made several unsuccessful attempts to arrange a meeting with Butt at the PCB headquarters at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. Naved was recently permitted by the board to play county cricket. He has played nine Tests and 74 ODIs for Pakistan. If he does not get selected for Pakistan, he is considering options to play in Bangladesh next month as well as joining up with Tasmania again for the Big Bash later this year. There is also interest from a couple of sides in South Africa for a stint there, though details have yet to be finalised. PCB legal adviser Talib Rizvi said that all the offending players had learned their lesson. The PCB took actions against the players to give them a lesson that they are not bigger than the game, Rizvi was quoted by a wire news agency. Since all the players have apologised, the PCBs objective is achieved and you will see a difference in their discipline in the future.
