PCB launches disciplinary inquiry after England series defeats

The Pakistan Cricket Board has begun an internal disciplinary inquiry into player conduct following consecutive Test losses to England. Reports indicate that seven players and two coaches have been dropped, and players' devices have been confiscated.

National selector Misbah-ul-Haq resigned after the board issued show-cause notices to the entire selection committee. The inquiry has widened to examine off-field contacts and activities beyond on-field performance.

Former Bangladesh spin coach Mushtaq Ahmed said he remains interested in the Pakistan role but cited concerns over job security and what he called emotional decision-making at the PCB. The board has urged the public to rely on official updates amid growing speculation.
