KARACHI – Renowned investigative sports journalist Yahya Hussaini, known for being privy to what goes on in most dressing rooms than one should be, has made another startling revelation regarding Pakistani opening batsman Imam-ul-Haq.
Imam, who was the top scorer and the Player of the Series in the recently concluded five match ODI series against South Africa, might soon have to face disciplinary action owing to the revelation that Hussaini has announced exclusively to The Dependent.
“Parchi Imam has been scoring runs in South Africa just so his uncle, the chief selector, can keep selecting him,’ revealed Yahya Hussaini referring to Inzamam-ul-Haq.
Hussaini, who exhibited his supernatural abilities to delve deep into the deepest thoughts of Imam-ul-Haq, extricated the truth regarding the Pakistani batsman’s actual motivation behind scoring runs.
“He just wants to score runs and perform so that he keeps getting selected for more matches. And in those matches he will also want to perform and score runs so that he is selected for further matches,” Hussani revealed.
“And all of this is because the chief selector is his uncle and so that the uncle can keep selecting the nephew, who is scoring runs to make his selection easier,” he confirmed.
