The English cricketer who joined Lahore Qalandars instead of Rashid Khan's tweet about Pakistan went viral

The recent news of an English cricketer joining the Lahore Qalandars team in Pakistan has been making headlines. This decision, however, came as a surprise to many, especially after a tweet by Afghan cricketer Rashid Khan went viral.

In the tweet, Khan expressed his disappointment at the lack of international players participating in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) and urged fellow cricketers to come and play in Pakistan. The tweet was met with mixed reactions, with some supporting Khan's call to action, while others criticized the current state of security in Pakistan.

Despite these concerns, the English cricketer in question, who has chosen to remain anonymous, decided to join the Lahore Qalandars team for the upcoming PSL season. In a statement, the player said, "I have always wanted to play in Pakistan, and I believe that cricket can help bring people together. I understand the risks involved, but I trust the security arrangements that have been put in place by the PSL."
