The team management revealed that the injury’s severity will keep Naseem Shah out of action for an unspecified period. Their medical staff is actively monitoring his condition and managing his rehabilitation process to ensure a full recovery.
In an official statement, the franchise announced, “Naseem Shah sustained a side injury during the match against Karachi Kings and is now out for an indefinite period.” Meanwhile, the management expressed cautious optimism regarding his potential return later in the tournament, contingent on successful rehab and medical clearance.
“We remain hopeful that after completing his rehabilitation and regaining full fitness, Naseem Shah may rejoin the squad in the latter stages of the PSL,” the statement added. The franchise also reiterated its full support for the young bowler, emphasizing their commitment to stand by him throughout his recovery journey.
