The surprising thing is that during the time when Global T20 Canada League is to be held, Pakistan team will not have a single match. It will not play any series. Even after this, the board did not give permission to these players.

    The Pakistan Cricket Board is keeping in mind the fitness of the players. So that the preparation for the upcoming series and Champions Trophy 2025 can be better. This is the reason why the board had earlier not given NOC to fast bowler Naseem Shah to participate in England’s 100 ball tournament ‘The Hundred’. Since then it was believed that the players will not be allowed to play in the Global T20 Canada League as well, now this news has also been confirmed.

    Naseem Shah: A Rising Star in the T20 World Cup

    Naseem Shah’s performance in the T20 World Cup has been nothing short of spectacular. Despite Pakistan’s struggles, Shah has shone brightly, showcasing his talent with both bat and ball. His exceptional performance against India was a highlight, although it ended in heartbreak as he was seen leaving the field in tears following a narrow 6-run defeat.

    Shah’s ability to consistently deliver under pressure has not only kept Pakistan’s hopes alive but also won him a legion of new fans, including celebrities like Kubra Khan. His passion and determination are palpable, and they resonate deeply with those who appreciate the finer nuances of the sport.

    Celebrity Fans and Rising Popularity

    Kubra Khan is not the first celebrity to express admiration for Naseem Shah. Indian actress Urvashi Rautela previously made headlines when she publicly acknowledged her fandom for the young cricketer during the Asia Cup 2022. Similarly, another Indian actress, Sonam Bajwa, shared a heartwarming reel on her Instagram Story featuring Naseem Shah comforting a young fan during a meet -and-greet session.

    Pakistan’s T20 World Cup Journey

    Amid the personal accolades, Naseem Shah’s primary focus remains on the T20 World Cup. Pakistan’s campaign has been a roller-coaster, with the team facing early setbacks against India and the USA. However, a crucial 7-wicket victory over Canada has rekindled their hopes of advancing in the tournament.

    For Pakistan to secure a spot in the next round, they must not only defeat Ireland in their final group match but also rely on a favourable outcome in the USA-Ireland game. This precarious situation underscores the unpredictable nature of the tournament and the high stakes involved.
