LAHORE: International cricketer Umar Akmal alongside his wife Noor went to meet ailing cricketer Zulqarnain Haider at his home.
Geo News reported Friday that Umar and his wife met Zulqarnain who underwent surgery after suffering from a severe stomach infection.
"It was painful to watch Zulqarnain in this condition," Umar told Geo News. "Being a human and former teammate, I met Zulqarnain and his family. I tried my best to help and assured all the support in future too," he said.
Upon on Umar's visit, ailing Zulqarnain thanked former colleague. "I am thankful to Umar for coming at my home," the discarded cricketer said.
"Also, my sincere regards to all those people who prayed for me," he added.
Zulqarnain's cricket career became controversial after he left the national team overnight during the Dubai tour in 2010. He then returned to domestic cricket but failed to make his way to the national team again.
