Pakistan Cricket Board to Introduce New Player Parental Support Policy

Pakistan has become the latest cricket nation to formalize a parent support policy.

Players on the country’s women’s team can transfer to a non-playing role until the start of their maternity leave.

They can also take up to 12 months of paid maternity leave and are guaranteed a contract extension for the following year.

Male players are entitled to a maximum of 30 days of paid leave.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will also assist in supporting childcare services for a female player if they need to travel for cricket activities.

The first player to benefit from the policy could be Captain Bismah Maroof who announced earlier this year that she would be taking an indefinite break from the game “as motherhood beckons”.

“The PCB has a duty of care to its cricket players and has taken steps to support them at every turn,” said CEO Wasim Khan.

“It is appropriate that we have a player-friendly parental support policy so that our professional cricketers can feel fully supported at an important stage in their lives, without having to worry about their career.

“I am hopeful that it will attract more women and girls to enter the sport as this will help them find the crucial work-life balance.”

New Zealand and Australia have already put in place formal policies to support their cricket players.

In 2019 Amy Satterthwaite was the first player to take advantage of New Zealand Cricket’s maternity leave policy and kept her full-pay contract for the following season.

Cricket Australia also introduced a parent policy in 2019 after three years of consultation with the players ‘union, the Australian Cricketers’ Association.

Earlier this year, however, Indian captain Virat Kohli was criticized after taking parental leave from Australia mid-series to be with his wife, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, for the birth of their first child.
