Quetta Gladiators pacer Naseem Shah suffers injury

Quetta Gladiators suffered a setback in the ongoing PSL-2020, as its pacer Naseem Shah faced injury and doctors advised him rest for a week.

Naseem Shah's ankle was sprained while playing against Peshawar Zalmi on Thursday. Naseem Shah has been given treatment to which he is responding well, an official of Quetta Gladiators, said.

"Naseem Shah has an injury to his left ankle; if needed, we will send him for a scan. However, so far he's responding well to treatment and is feeling well," the official said.

Naseem Shah had been unable to participate in the Gladiators' first two matches owing to pain in his ribs which he had started to experience during the Test series against Bangladesh played in February.
