    Champions Trophy: Injury Scare For Pakistan As Fakhar Zaman Walk Off The Field Against NZ In First Over

    By IANS News February 19, 2025 • 15:32 PM View: 805
    Champions Trophy: Pakistan’s Champions Trophy title defence got off to an upset start, with opener Fakhar Zaman forced off the field just two deliveries into their opening game against New Zealand at the National Stadium.

    Zaman appeared to suffer a lower-back injury while chasing down a boundary, giving Pakistan an early scare in their title defense.

    New Zealand opener Will Young had driven Shaheen Afridi through the covers, prompting Zaman to sprint after the ball. While he managed to relay it to Babar Azam, the left-hander immediately signalled discomfort and walked off the field alongside the team physio. As a result, Kamran Ghulam came in as a fielder substitute.
