Former Pakistan spinner Arshad Khan, who is remembered for troubling Indian cricketing icons such as Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag in the mid-2000s, has fallen on bad days and now drives a cab in Sydney.
It was by chance that Arshad's identity got revealed, when a cricket fan hired his cab in the Australian city recently and found out during the course of conversation that he was being driven by the spinner who has played nine Tests and taken 32 wickets.
"He was the driver of our cab and we started chatting, he told me that he is from Pakistan and lives in Sydney. Also that he has been to Hyderabad many times when he was playing for Lahore Badshahs something in ICL (Indian Cricket League). After which I asked him his full name and then I was shocked to see his face which I could partially recognise. I shook has his hand and left (sic)," the fan revealed on social media.
