Pak Spinner Abrar Not Concerned By Backlash On The Hundred Signing By Indian Owners: Report
Indian Premier League: Pakistan’s mystery spinner Abrar Ahmed is not losing sleep over the possible backlash, specifically comments from former Indian great Sunil Gavaskar, on his signing by an Indian-owned franchise, Sunrisers Leeds, in the auction for the upcoming edition of The Hundred, a news report said on Tuesday.
Abrar, ranked as high as number two in the ICC rankings until last month and now third, was signed by Sunrisers Leeds, which owns Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League, for 190k Pounds Sterling last week. The franchise owners are facing severe backlash in India over the signing, but Abrar is not worried by comments over the move, Telecom Asia Sport said in a report.
Gavaskar called the signing an indirect way to fund the Pakistan military, which, in turn, kills Indian soldiers.
