There has been a panic situation in the Pakistan cricket team for the last few days. Pakistan has to go to England and play the upcoming series. In the Corona test conducted before leaving for England, 10 Pakistani players have been found positive. The players found positive include big players like Mohammad Hafeez and Wahab Riaz.
After much deliberation, the PCB has decided that Pakistan's team will be left for England without these 10 players. The PCB has decided that these players will not be able to go to England until the corona report of these players come negative.
The 10 players who were found to be Corona positive include Shadab Khan, Haris Rauf, Haider Ali, Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan, Wahab Riaz, Imran Khan, Mohammad Hafeez, Mohammad Hasnain and Kashif Bhatti. There was a panic situation in the Pakistani camp after these players were found infected. The corona test of all these players was also conducted again.
After the exclusion of these 10 players from the series, these players will now go on the England tour: Azhar Ali (Test captain), Babar Azam (T20 captain), Abid Ali, Imam-ul-Haq, Shaan Masood, Asad Shafiq, Fawad Alam, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Faheem Ashraf, Mohammad Abbas, Nasim Shah, Shaheed Afridi, Sohail Khan, Osman Shenwari, Imad Wasim and Yasir Shah. Apart from this, Rohel Nazeeq and Moosa Khan have also been included in the team as reserve players.
The matches between Pakistan and England are scheduled to start from July 30 but now it seems that due to Corona, the date will be pushed a little further. Pakistan's team has to play three Tests and two T20 matches with England. Currently the West Indies team is in England. West Indies team has to play 3 Test matches in England which will end on 28th July. It will now be seen what changes will be made in the program of Pakistan and England series.
On the other hand, former Pakistan captain and veteran batsman Inzamam-ul-haq has started a new controversy. Inzamam strongly criticized the medical staff of PCB. Inzamam said through his YouTube channel, 'I would like to request the PCB to look into the matter properly because if you ignore them then the same incidents will happen as Hafeez got his personal test done. The board should keep these players at the National Cricket Academy in Lahore better than quarantining them in their own home.’
