Pakistan is currently facing a series of challenges as their Asia Cup campaign hangs in the balance after suffering a humiliating loss to India in the Super 4.
Adding to their troubles, several key players have sustained injuries. Unfortunately, three Pakistani players are in danger of missing the crucial match against Sri Lanka due to injuries suffered during the game against India.
Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf are almost certain to be unavailable, and there is a possibility that Agha Salman may also join them on the sidelines. Salman endured a terrifying incident when he was struck in the face while attempting a paddle-sweep without wearing a helmet.
The ball hit him on the right cheek, just below the eye, causing immediate bleeding. The Pakistan physio rushed to his aid, and though he attempted to continue batting, it is likely that he will be unable to participate in the upcoming match against Sri Lanka.
These setbacks have placed Pakistan in a precarious position, and they will need to regroup and find suitable replacements to stay competitive in the Asia Cup.
