Due to the theft of one of Akmal’s pricey cell phones, he has drawn notice once more. The player said that this week at Model Town C Block Cricket Ground, his two phones were taken.

According to Umar Akmal, the two mobile phones are worth a total of about 760,000 rupees.

Abbas Ali, the cousin of Umar Akmal, filed the case at the relevant police station, and now police teams are looking for criminals to recover the priceless mobile phones.

The Quetta-born boxer won the title in the ongoing Asia Asian Boxing Federation (ABF) when he defeated Indonesia’s Hendrik Barongsay.

Shoaib outperformed his opponent, standing unbowed throughout the 10-round battle and earning 117 points to Barongsay’s 57. The young boxer will now be able to fight in larger contests.

After defeating Thai boxer Sornram in September to qualify for the title battle, Shoaib, commonly known as “the Coolest Boy,” won his third consecutive bout in the event to capture the professional ABF title.

Shoaib told reporters after the feat that it had always been his desire to raise the green flag all over the world after representing the country in mega-events.

“I swear I will not let down my homeland as I feel totally equipped to outperform the best fighters,” the national boxer declared, dedicating his victory to the people of Pakistan.

According to reports, Ben Foakes, the wicket-keeper batter, has been ruled out of the team because he contracted a viral infection yesterday and will not be fully recovered in time for the first Test.

Meanwhile, the management has decided to name Will Jacks as the starting lineup for the curtain-raiser. In Ben Foakes’ absence, Ollie Pope will keep the wickets.

It was reported yesterday that the curtain-raiser could be postponed because half of the visiting squad was suffering from a viral infection, which also forced them to miss the previous training session.

Later in the statement, the Pakistan Cricket Body (PCB) indicated that they were in discussion with the English cricket board over the start of the series.

Meanwhile, Pakistan named their playing XI ahead of the encounter, with four fresh faces making their red-ball debut. Zahid Mahmood, Mohammad Ali, Saud Shakeel, and Haris Rauf are among Pakistan’s debutants.
