KARACHI: The Pakistan Billiards and Snooker Federation (PBSF) has cancelled top-16 ranking tournament that was to commence from Monday as the International Billiards and Snooker Federation (IBSF) has rescheduled the world snooker championship at Bangalore from October to November.

Earlier, the PBSF had announced to hold the event to pick top two cueists for the world event.

The federation will now organise second ranking event in mid September that will form criteria to select top two cueists for the annual world event, the PBSF president Alamgir Shaikh said on Tuesday.
