Although the degree of the injury is unknown, Naseem Shah’s absence could jeopardize Pakistan’s future ambitions. As the national team’s leading bowler, Naseem Shah is crucial for Pakistan as it prepares for the Asia Cup and the ODI World Cup in 2023.

While fans hope for a quick recovery for the young bowler, Pakistan’s pace attack will be concerned about the shakiness that Naseem Shah’s absence will cause in the next events. History may repeat itself in Pakistan’s greatest fear, bringing back the uncertainty generated by Shaheen Shah’s knee injury in the previous Asia Cup and T20 World Cup 2022.
