Pakistan Women's Cricketers Injured in Road Accident After Curfew Breach

Pakistan Women's Cricket Team Players Injured in Road Accident After Breaching Curfew

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has confirmed that at least two national women's team members sustained serious injuries in a road accident earlier this month. The incident occurred after the players breached curfew and left the camp during a white-ball home series against the West Indies.

PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi revealed that five to six players had gone out in the evening in Karachi without informing the team management. They were involved in a road accident, resulting in intense injuries to at least two players who are currently undergoing treatment.

Naqvi stated that the incident had a significant impact on the team's performance in the ODI series against the West Indies. One of the main players, Fatima Sana, was injured and missed the matches. Despite the injury, Sana surprisingly featured in all three T20I matches of the series.

The PCB has taken disciplinary action against the players involved in the incident. Naqvi emphasized that their actions were unacceptable and that the Board has appointed a full-time senior rank security police officer to enforce proper timings and ensure the safety of the team.

The incident has raised concerns about the discipline and safety of the Pakistan women's cricket team. The PCB is in touch with potential candidates to appoint a new head coach for the team and is also considering hiring a high-profile foreign coach.
