Cricket Pakistan deciphered the conversation between Sarfaraz and Saud, both of whom play for Karachi in the domestic circuit.
“How long can I serve you?” Shakeel was heard in the video
Sarfaraz replied and said, 'You will be of no use to me. First of all, I never told you to do anything. I never asked you to trade. I traded places with the person I was planning on dating.”
Shakeel replied saying, “You still traded, so I helped you out.”
A few days ago, Sarfaraz and Saud were involved in a separate incident.
Sarfaraz had appealed for a timeout dismissal against Saud Shakeel, who took a long time to get to the middle.
Realizing the same thing, Saud made a running run towards the middle and was ultimately declared not out.
This led to jubilant scenes at the Manuka Oval, with Pakistani players cheering and clapping at the funny incident.
