Islamabad: Former Pakistan Cricket team captain Shahid Afridi and Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Ijaz Butt met behind the curtains to settle theĀ conflict between them, sources said on Tuesday.
The sources said that the meeting was facilitated by a high profile government personality who also attended the meeting.
They said that the meeting was aimed at resolving the issues between the PCB and flamboyant Shahid Khan Afridi out side the court.
On the other hand, a private television quoting Ijaz Butt said no secret meeting was held between him and the former captain.
Afridi went to court after the PCB punished him for allegedly breaching a code of conduct by announcing his retirement, after he was dumped as one-day captain, and levelling allegations against the board.
It suspended his central contract, revoked all his no-objection certificates (NOCs) which would have allowed him to play in England and Sri Lanka and served him with a show-cause notice last week.
