Pakistan cricket team member Imam-ul-Haq may be banned for up to two years following a recent injury controversy during the second Test against England at Lord’s. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is set to investigate the incident involving Imam and wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan, who were both removed from the squad and returned to Pakistan during England's tour.
A high-profile inquiry committee is reportedly being formed to scrutinize the details of Imam's injury, as well as to address concerns over Rizwan's discipline. Both players could face severe punishment, with reports suggesting a potential ban of one to two years for Imam. This follows an earlier incident in which Imam was accused of faking a calf strain, an accusation he faced during Pakistan's tour of New Zealand in March 2025.
The PCB is also expected to question Rizwan about disciplinary issues in the coming days, and both players might be excluded from future Pakistan teams and face additional penalties.
