Shocking news for the Pakistani fans of bowler Shadab Khan
Shares
Former national team fast bowler Umar Gul says that Shadab Khan faked an injury. In the 26th match of the World Cup played in Chennai yesterday, South Africa defeated Pakistan by one wicket in a thrilling contest. South Africa achieved the target of 271 runs, suffering a loss of 9 wickets, from Pakistan's side.
Criticism from former cricketers is mounting on the captain and players of the national team due to consecutive losses in the World Cup. However, when South Africa's innings began, vice-captain Shadab Khan got injured while fielding and had to leave. As a replacement, Usama Mir took over the bowling.
In ARY Digital's program 'The Fourth Umpire Show,' former fast bowler Umar Gul criticized Shadab Khan, saying that he doesn't know what kind of injury he has, you fall, go out, the physio checks you, you come back, talk to people, and then leave again.
Umar Gul said that when you realize that the match is going in our favor, you return, sit out, and boost the team's morale. This means you've feigned an injury, and people will question it. He added that there are also players who have been brought into the team and are already senior players; I don't think Shadab had a serious injury of any kind.
