However, before deciding he had run out of patience with the PCB and PSL, the Australian took to Twitter to talk about the set of events which had transpired to lead to his departure. In a set of tweets, Faulkner spoke about nonpayment of his contract being the main reason behind him deciding to wield the axe on his stay in the T20 league.
PCB asked the bank to return or transfer that amount but the bank also denied to refund it and the whole scenario was created.

In the aftermath of Faulkner’s claims, the PCB came out to shed light on what had really transpired with it coming to light that the cricketer had already been paid 70% of his fees with the remaining 30% stalled owing to Faulkner providing two different bank accounts. The PCB went onto ban Faulkner from further partaking in any impending seasons of the league as well.
It has now also surfaced that Faulkner who was apparently drunk during his discussion with PCB officials at the PC Hotel where he was staying had flown into a rage. The player based out of Australia had gone onto throw his helmet and bat at a chandelier in the hotel with reports also claiming he had thrown his kit bag from the sixth floor as he lost his marbles.
