Fakhar Zaman Ruled Out Of West Indies Tour With Hamstring Injury
The Pakistan Cricket Board: Pakistan's top-order batter Fakhar Zaman, who was sidelined for the third T20I against the West Indies after picking up a left hamstring strain during the second T20I in Lauderhill, has been ruled out of the forthcoming three-match ODI series against the Caribbean side.
Khushdil Shah stepped in to replace Zaman in the playing XI for the third T20I on Monday (IST). The injury occurred in the 19th over of West Indies’ innings as Zaman chased a ball in the outfield. A medical evaluation by the team’s support staff later confirmed a mild strain in his left hamstring.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has confirmed that Fakhar received immediate treatment and initial care following his injury. He is set to return to Pakistan on August 4, a day after the final and deciding T20I. His rehabilitation will be overseen by the PCB medical team at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Lahore. The PCB has not yet announced whether a replacement will be named for the ODI squad.
