Haider accuses Umar Akmal

Pakistan's runaway wicketkeeper Zulqarnain Haider has claimed he was mentally tortured and harassed by batsman Umar Akmal. Zulqarnain, in his reply to the Board, has claimed that one of the reasons for his decision to abruptly leave the team hotel without informing the management last year in November in Dubai was because he was under severe mental stress. "Although he has not clearly explained the reasons for his leaving the team hotel and flying off to London, he has listed the alleged harassment by Umar Akmal and some other players as upsetting him a lot," a source in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) was quoted as saying by PTI.
