Srinagar: PCB Chairmain has taken serious note of the mishandling of pacer Ihsanullah’s injury and rehabilitation.
Ihsanullah burst into seen durng last year’s Pakistan Super League with his pace and subsequently participated in three T20 matches against Afghanistan in Sharjah and two ODIs at home against New Zealand.
However, following the New Zealand series, he sustained an elbow injury and was sidelined for subsequent events, including the Asia Cup and World Cup.
However, an inaccurate diagnosis of his injury and a poorly executed surgery in Lahore have resulted in him still not having fully recovered.
As per a report in Press Trust of India, the initial diagnosis was done by a senior doctor on the board’s medical panel, due to which time was wasted on trying to rehabilitate him without surgery.
After he had undergone surgery, which was botched up at a private hospital in Lahore, doctors at his PSL franchise, Multan Sultan, concluded he needed to consult a specialist in the UK for his treatment.
The franchise owner, Ali Tareen, has now got permission from the PCB to send Ehsan to London for further consultation but this has upset Naqvi who believes it was the responsibility of the board officials and medical panel to take good care of the fast bowler.
“Mohsin Naqvi is very upset after this incident came out in the open and he came to know about it. Chances are that some of the officials responsible for supervising Ehsan’s treatment will find themselves out of jobs very soon,” reports qouted sources said.
