The star bowler of the Indian cricket team, Mohammad Shami, has reacted strongly to the accusations of bias against International Cricket Council (ICC) and Board of control for cricket in India (BCCI) by former Pakistani cricketer Hasan Raza.

On a recent episode of Soch ki Jeet on ABN News, former national cricketer Hasan Raza was asked by host Hasnain Liaqat, “Is ICC giving different balls to Indian bowlers, as the way they are swinging the ball is more than other bowlers.”

In response, Hassan replied, “The way Siraj and Shami were swinging the ball, it looked like ICC or BCCI were giving them different and suspicious balls in the second innings. The ball needs to be inspected, for swing. The ball may also have an additional layer of coating.”

Over at Wasim Akram’s show Ask the Pavilion, the legendary fast bowler was asked by a fan if there is any chance of the ICC giving different balls to Indian bowlers.

“All these assertions are ridiculous. By talking like this, you get yourself and us humiliated in the world. This is a very common thing, the team wins the toss and bowls, then the umpire comes with 12 balls-box from which the bowling team selects two balls. The umpire is accompanied by other people such as refs, etc”.

Indian fast bowler Muhammad Shami also shared the video of Hasan Raza’s viral clip on his Instagram story and wrote, ‘Shame on you, focus on the game and not on unnecessary nonsense, sometimes enjoy the success of others, this is an ICC tournament. , not your local tournament, you were the player, right?’

Shami added “Wasim bhai has explained, still, you don’t believe in your player Wasim Akram? You are busy in praising yourself.”
