Common man!
If you ask any genuine Pakistani cricket fan about the most exciting fast-bowling talent in the last three years, it’s hard to look past Ihsanullah. The guy was phenomenal, playing a key role in getting Multan Sultans to the finals and topping the wicket charts.
Unfortunately, he got injured. The big question is: did Multan Sultans do enough to support him, or was he just left to figure things out on his own and end up in PCB’s hands? Sure, it’s PCB’s job to take care of him, but couldn’t Multan Sultans have stepped up more instead of just making tweets blaming the issue on PCB. Could they have handled the surgery themselves given he was an asset for them ?
To make it worse, their owner, Ali Tareen, reportedly has made some awful comments to discourage and degrade the promising youngster, saying Ihsanullah won’t amount to anything and won’t bowl at the same speeds again. It feels like he’s trying to discourage other teams from picking him, which is just plain selfish.
I really hope Ihsanullah makes a strong comeback and proves everyone wrong—especially Ali Tareen. This guy deserves way better.
