BADIN, Aug 17: Badin district clubs have decided not to participate in the trials to select Quaid-i-Azam trophy team against secretary District Cricket Association (DCA) Badin Farooque Rustamani’s alleged favouritism in selection.

A meeting of captains of clubs held on Saturday adopted a unanimous resolution seeking removal of secretary DCA as he had been holding the post for the last ten years without holding elections.

The meeting noted that due to lack of interest by secretary cricket activities in the district received serious set back and in taluka the cricket activities were badly hit.

It also claimed that no district level tournaments were not held for the last three years.
