LAHORE
\nPakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi announced on Sunday that star batter Saim Ayub will be flown to London for immediate medical treatment following consultations with top medical experts, Geo Super reported.
\nThe move aims to ensure a thorough diagnosis and effective treatment of Ayub\u2019s injury.
\nNaqvi personally contacted Ayub to check on his condition and extended his heartfelt wishes for a swift recovery.
\nHe expressed the importance of providing the necessary care, emphasising that Ayub will be examined by renowned orthopaedic specialists in London.
\nAn appointment has already been arranged at one of the leading hospitals to ensure the best possible treatment for the young cricketer.
\nDr Mamreze, who has been overseeing the left-handed batter\u2019s treatment in Pakistan, sent the cricketer\u2019s medical reports to London for further evaluation.
\nNaqvi praised his dedication and reiterated that the PCB would provide all the necessary resources to support Ayub\u2019s recovery.
\n\u201cSaim Ayub is a stylish and outstanding batter, and an asset to Pakistan cricket,\u201d Naqvi said.
\n\u201cWe are doing everything possible to ensure his full recovery. He will be sent on the next available flight from Cape Town to London, with Assistant Coach Azhar Mahmood accompanying him to ensure his well-being,\u201d he added.
\nThe injury occurred during fielding on the opening day of the second men\u2019s cricket Test against South Africa at Newlands on Friday.
\nWhile attempting to retrieve the ball, Ayub lost his balance and stumbled backward, resulting in the injury.
\nAn MRI conducted on Friday afternoon confirmed the fracture, leading to his ankle being immobilised with a medical moon boot. As a result, he has been sidelined from cricket for at least six weeks.
\nDespite the setback, Naqvi expressed optimism that the opening batter would recover in time for the upcoming Champions Trophy in Pakistan.
\n\u201cThe PCB will spare no effort in utilising all necessary resources to aid in his treatment and rehabilitation,\u201d Naqvi assured.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
