Islamabad, Oct 31 (ANI): Pakistan cricket team's manager Intikhab Alam has refuted reports that members of the national team, now in Abu Dhabi for the series against South Africa, have become prisoners in their hotel because of the new code of conduct for the players.
"What we have only done is enforce strict curfew timings and we will not tolerate any player not adhering to these timings. They are free to go out but they have to follow the curfew timings," the Daily Times quoted Intikhab, as saying.
The former captain expressed hope that the new code of conduct was necessary, given the recent spate of controversies and scandals surrounding the national team, and would soon start showing results.
He also admitted that the team management had been tasked with keeping a close eye on the people with whom the players move around inside or outside the hotel.
"These new regulations are now required to bring about an improvement in Pakistan cricket. We are clear we will not tolerate any indiscipline from any player," he said.
Earlier, it was reported that the players were not venturing out of their hotel rooms because of the new conduct code, and that this was their way of a silent protest against the more stringent rules and regulations. (ANI)
