Rawalpindi: Pakistan Test team captain Shan Masood has been injured before the tour of Australia.
In Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, the semi-final of the Pakistan Cup was being played between Karachi Whites and Multan, during which former captain Sarfaraz Ahmed and Shan Masood collided while running. The result of this collision emerged in the event of injury to the new captain of the Pakistani Test team, Shan Masood.
This incident occurred when Karachi Whites were defending a target of 281 runs against Multan and Sohaib Maqsood was present on the batting end.
On the second ball of the ninth over, Sohaib Maqsood played a shot but due to the ball being high, both captain and wicketkeeper Sarfaraz Ahmed and Shan Masood ran and collided with each other.
