Malik was nowhere to be seen. Murmurs began: Was Malik doing a Ganguly on Dhoni? Minutes ticked by, but it seemed like …

File photo of Shoaib Malik© X (Twitter) The inclusion of 43-year-old Shoaib Malik in the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) has led to a lot of controversy. The former Pakistan captain is currently playing for Quetta Gladiators. However, his old teammate – Mohammad Yousuf – was not in favour of his participation as he requested the organisers to ‘draw a line’ while deciding who can play in the competition. Shoaib Malik was appointed as the mentor of domestic Pakistan side Stallions for the Champions One-Day Cup last year. As a result, Yousuf said that he needs to decide whether he wants to be mentor or a player in order to avoid any conflict of interest – an issue that has plagued Pakistan cricket in the recent past. “The PCB needs to draw a line regarding Shoaib Malik playing the PSL. If you ask me to play, even I’ll play,” Yousuf said on Samaa.TV. “I think the board needs to decide who can play and who can’t. The board needs to make some decisions. …
