Lahore: Just hours before the start of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Season 10, an unfortunate development has emerged for Peshawar Zalmi, as their star captain Babar Azam has reportedly suffered an injury during a net practice session.
As excitement builds around the opening match between Islamabad United and Lahore Qalandars at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Zalmi fans were met with concern after a video of Babar Azam limping off the field surfaced on social media.
In the footage, Babar can be seen walking with a visible limp as he heads back to the dressing room following the injury. The exact nature and severity of the injury have not yet been confirmed by team officials or the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
The news has sparked widespread speculation and worry among fans, as Babar is not only a key player for Zalmi but also one of the biggest names in the tournament. His absence could potentially impact Zalmi’s performance in the early stages of the league.
As of now, no official statement has been released regarding whether Babar Azam will be fit to participate in Peshawar Zalmi’s opening match. Updates from the team’s medical staff are awaited.
