Naseem Shah, the fast bowler of the Pakistan Cricket Team, disclosed that his absence from the match against Galle Titans was not due to an injury, but rather a conscious decision to rest. Naseem Shah clarified that he is in optimal physical condition and fully geared up for the upcoming series against Afghanistan.
Naseem Shah elaborated that he had communicated his need for rest to his team, the Colombo Strikers, and the management duly granted his request. Contrary to previous reports, Colombo Strikers' captain, Chamika Karunaratne, had mentioned a shoulder issue as the reason for Naseem Shah's non-participation.
The impending series between Pakistan and Afghanistan is scheduled to take place in Sri Lanka from August 22 to August 26. Given this, a significant number of Pakistani players are already in Sri Lanka to partake in the Lanka Premier League (LPL). Additionally, with several matches of the Asia Cup set to unfold in Sri Lanka, Pakistani players aimed to acclimate themselves and adapt to the prevailing playing conditions
