Imad Wasim Uses Abusive Language Against Ihsanullah In PSL 8 Clash
The Pakistan Super League has had its fair share of controversies, and its 8th edition, too, has seen some fireworks between the players representing different teams.

A day earlier, Karachi Kings beat Multan Sultans by 66 runs and the match involved some unsavory words spoken on the field, Cricket Pakistan reported.

When Anwar Ali saw his dismissal in the 16th over and Ihsanullah approached the crease, Imad was heard instructing Akif Javed to bowl only bouncers and not a full length delivery.

He was heard in the background, saying, "Don’t bowl full delivery to this ******, only bowl bouncers."

Ihsanullah, however, did manage three balls from Akif and remained not out, but Kings where able to bowl his side out for 101 runs in the next over.

Last year, Imad had to face a five per cent of his match fee as a fine for a Level 1 breach of the PSL code of conduct.
Earlier, former Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi made headlines when he gave a ‘brotherly advice’ to star pacer Mohammad Amir for his on-field behaviour. He was reported to have urged the star pacer to refrain from such moves now that he had made his way back to the sport. Amir seemed visibly charged during his bowling spell, whereas Babar Azam remained composed and hit boundaries in a calm and calculated way, winning his fans' praise.

The breach occurred during Karachi Kings' one-run defeat to Islamabad United in the PSL 2022 at the Gaddafi Stadium.

Imad had violated Article 2.5 of the PSL Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which is against “using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his/her dismissal during a PSL Match”.

Last week, former Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi made headlines after he gave a ‘brotherly advice’ to star pacer Mohammad Amir after he threw the ball in Babar Azam’s direction during the PSL match.

He was reported to have urged Amir to refrain from such moves now that he had made his way back to the sport.

Amir seemed visibly charged during his bowling spell, whereas Babar Azam remained composed and hit boundaries in a calm and calculated way.
