In the cricket world, the interest of players in T20 league has been increasing for some time. Due to playing more and more T20 leagues, many star players have left the central contracts given by their cricket boards. Recently, some New Zealand players had left the central contract, which included players like Kane Williamson, Devon Conway and Finn Allen. Now an important player of South Africa has also decided to leave the central contract, which has surprised everyone.

This star player left the central contract

South African left-arm spinner Tabraiz Shamsi has decided to opt out of his central contract with Cricket South Africa with immediate effect. This means that he will now be able to play in T20 leagues across the world without any restrictions. However, he will also be available to play for South Africa and will be seen playing in big tournaments.

Talking about his decision, Tabraiz Shamsi said, 'I have decided to opt out of my central contract to be more flexible during the domestic season, giving me the opportunity to explore all available opportunities and provide for my family in a good way. Will get a chance to take care from. This will not in any way affect my ability or motivation to play for the Proteas and I will always be available to play for my country whenever I am needed. Bringing the World Cup to South Africa has always been my dream, and no franchise league will be more important than playing for my country.

Left central contract due to restrictions?

It is believed that Tabrez Shamsi has taken this decision due to the interference of Cricket South Africa in the T20 league. In fact, Cricket South Africa had dropped him from the PSL in Pakistan earlier this year so that he could play for the Titans in the CSA T20 Challenge, which is Africa's domestic T20 competition. Due to this decision, Shamsi could play only 4 matches for Karachi Kings and he had to lose the match fees for the remaining six matches. Recently, something similar was seen during CPL also. He had to miss some CPL matches due to his participation in the CSA awards ceremony. During this period also he had to lose the match fees for some matches.
