DUBAI: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is on its toes with bowler Mohammad Wasim Jr’s complaint of back pain after a bowling session coming in just a few days after pace ace Shaheen Afridi was benched due to a knee injury ahead of Asia Cup 2022.
As the rest of the team gets ready for its crucial opening encounter set for Sunday, August 28, against India in Asia Cup 2022, the board management decided Wasim should get an MRI scan. The report is expected to be in by today (Friday) evening.
Sources said a decision on whether Wasim will play in the Asia Cup will be taken based on the report.
