Cricketers Haseebullah Khan and Mohammad Shehzad voiced their quiet frustration on social media after being left out of the Pakistan Shaheens squad set to tour England, sparking speculation among fans and cricket circles.

The omission appears to have disappointed both players, who turned to social media with cryptic, emotionally charged messages hinting at perceived injustice and a call for patience in adversity.

Haseebullah, taking to his platform, shared a reflective quote:

“Inflict only as much injustice as you can bear yourself. Gather only as much patience as you have the strength to endure God’s wrath.”

He continued, suggesting a divine reckoning for those who suffer in silence:

“Because when the patient endures, their matter becomes God’s matter.”

His words, although indirect, strongly implied a sense of deep personal disappointment and perceived unfair treatment over his exclusion.

Mohammad Shehzad also posted a message centered around the theme of patience, indicating a similar emotional response to the decision. While he refrained from directly criticizing selectors or officials, his post suggested that he, too, felt let down by the unexpected omission.

The Pakistan Shaheens, led by Test vice-captain Saud Shakeel, are gearing up for their England tour, but the absence of Haseebullah and Shehzad has left many fans questioning the selection criteria.

Neither the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) nor team management has issued an official explanation for their exclusion. However, the cryptic nature of the players’ posts suggests they may have expected to be part of the squad and are using social media as a subtle outlet for their frustration.

As the team prepares for its overseas assignment, these posts have added a layer of intrigue and stirred debate over transparency and communication in the national cricket setup.
