Ball tampering row escalates as Fakhar Zaman disputes ban amid PSL’s Lahore Qalandars chaos

Image
The Fakhar Zaman’s ball tampering episode refuses to settle quietly. Two days after being handed a two-match suspension , the Lahore Qalandars batter has formally challenged the decision, doubling down on an already messy situation in PSL 2026. The charge started from the closing moments of Qalandars’ defeat to Karachi Kings. With 14 needed off the final over, Fakhar was seen handling the ball before it was handed back to Haris Rauf. The umpires quickly intervened. The ball was changed, and five penalty runs were awarded, effectively reducing the target and tilting the game in Karachi’s favour. Fakhar Zaman contests suspension after ball-tampering verdict Match officials Shahid Saikat and Faisal Khan Aafreedi, along with TV umpire Asif Yaqoob and fourth umpire Tariq Rasheed, reported the incident. Following a hearing led by match referee Roshan Mahanama, Fakhar was found guilty of a Level 3 offence under Article 2.14 of the PSL Code of Conduct. The PCB confirmed a two-match suspen...

However, his admission to the Hundred tournament is something that stands out. Looking back at his brief stint in The Hundred last season, the England great did not try to dress it up. He literally said that he hated every minute he was part of it. “ It was a mixture of hating every minute of The Hundred last year, if I can say that, and especially being captain this year, I think it’s really important that I focus on being as fit as I can be for the four-day stuff. I want to play in the Blast as well again ,” Anderson told the Independent. “When The Hundred’s on, I’m hopefully going to be on holiday somewhere.” The numbers do not say much. Three games, two wickets, an economy touching 11. For someone who had just picked up 17 wickets in the early phase of the T20 Blast to earn that wildcard call, it was a quiet tournament. But fo...
