Pakistan pacer Naseem Shah was slammed for body-shaming his fellow countryman Azam Khan during the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League.
During the match between Khulna Tigers and Comilla Victorians on Tuesday, Shah was caught mocking Khan’s walking style on camera. The speedster also tried to hug the wicketkeeper-batter but the latter pushed him away.
However, netizens were not happy with Shah's gestures on the field.
It must be noted that Pakistan players have been allowed to participate in the BPL till February 8, according to sources.
However, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB)’s decision is only applicable on those who are not part of the upcoming exhibition match in Quetta between Peshawar Zalmi and Quetta Gladiators.
The players who will participate in the exhibition match on February 5 have been asked to return home on February 2.
Earlier, all the players had been advised to return home on February 2, eleven days before the PSL 8 begins in Multan. The PCB had said that it has recalled the players who will be playing the PSL 8 due to the request of the franchises.
It is worth mentioning here that top players of the Pakistan T20 side including Mohammad Rizwan, Haris Rauf and Iftikhar Ahmed, along with others, are participating in the BPL 2023.
