‘Did He Come Out and Bat After All This?’: David Warner Doesn’t Appear to Be Impressed Either with Imam-Ul-Haq
The opener was scanned after leaving the field, and Pakistan said his left calf injury could sideline him for about 10 days.
Pakistan opener Imam-ul-Haq is unlikely to continue in the ongoing Lord Test against England after suffering a grade-one tear in his left calf.
Pakistan's team management initially described the problem as a "strain to his left calf muscle," with the injury dating back to the first Test at Headingley.
England secured an unassailable 2-0 Test series victory over Pakistan; the batting line-up was dismissed for 194, though Saud Shakeel scored 97 runs.
The injury is expected to keep Imam out for around 10 days, and the Pakistan Cricket Board called up Saim Ayub, Arafat Minhas, and Abdullah Fazal to Birmingham.
Reports indicate Imam and Mohammad Rizwan have been dropped from the Test squad, while England's victory marked their first win over Pakistan at Lord in 16 years.
