Lahore, October 9: Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has rejected all tenders submitted for television rights as these were not up to expectations. Accordingly, the PCB committee formed to consider the bids decided last week to put on hold the announcement of its broadcasters.

PCB had set September 30 as deadline to announce its broadcasters for the next five years.

"The leading broadcasters were amongst others who submitted their bids. But their offers didn't match out expectations. Therefore, PCB has decided to reject the bids and has opted to wait for the next international home series before asking for fresh offers," a spokesman of the PCB said.
