Pakistan’s veteran cricketer, Danish Kaneria plead to Prime Minister Imran Khan in a bid to revamp his international career. The 1992 World Cup-winning skipper Imran has himself brought laurels to the country in the international set up.

Kaneria has come up with a series of tweets thrashing the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) after earlier accusing Pakistan players of discrimination on religious grounds. Notably, Danish is a Hindu by religion.

Kaneria, who was involved in the infamous spot-fixing saga in 2009, claimed that he wishes to apply for the role of coaching in Pakistan cricket. However, time and again his requests have been overlooked.

Shoaib Akhtar had sensationally claimed that Danish Kaneria faced religious discrimination in the Pakistan dressing room.

Akhtar alleged that the players were not even ready to eat from the same table with Danish Kaneria and the latter never got credits for his fine performances.

After Akhtar’s allegations, Danish Kaneria also stated the same and threatened to expose the players who mistreated him because of his religion.
