This incident happened on January 31 in Sindh Premier League
Recently, on January 31, in a match played between Karachi Ghazi and Larkana Challengers in the Sindh Premier League, Pakistan team’s all-rounder Iftikhar Ahmed was seen in a clash.
Let us tell you that when Ahmed, who played for Karachi team in the match, dismissed the captain of the opposing team Asad Shafiq in the 8th over, a heated argument was seen between the two. During this, Iftikhar Ahmed was seen giving a very sharp gesture to the cricketer to leave the field, which was criticized a lot by the cricket fans on social media.
However, now this experienced player of Pakistan team has realized his mistake, and he has apologized for this attitude towards midfield Asad Shafiq. Ahmed wrote through a post on his official X account-
I apologize for my behavior on the field today. I should not have reacted so impulsively at that time. I personally apologized to Asad Shafiq Bhai after the match. I always have respect for him. We have played a lot of cricket together.
See this social media post of Iftikhar Ahmed
I am extremely apologetic for my behavior in the field today. I shouldn’t have reacted the way I did in the heat of the moment. I’ve apologized to @asadshafiq1986 Bhai in person after the match & have always held great respects for him. We have played a lot of cricket together.

On the other hand, if we tell you the condition of this match, Karachi Ghazi had scored 161 runs while batting first. So when Larkana Challengers set out to chase this target, they could score only 92 runs and the team had to lose the match by 69 runs.
So this is Karachi’s third win in five matches and after this win it has reached the third position in the points table. In the match, Iftikhar Ahmed also performed as per his name, scoring 69 runs in batting and then also took three wickets in bowling.
