LAHORE, Pakistan (Reuters) - Pakistan have dropped Haider Ali from their tour of England and West Indies after the batsman and his Peshawar Zalmi team mate Umaid Asif broke COVID-19 protocols in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) in Abu Dhabi, the cricket board said on Thursday.

Both have been suspended from the PSL final against Multan Sultans later on Thursday after admitting to meeting people from outside their designated bio-secure bubble and flouting social distancing norms on Wednesday.
