Wahab on Usama Mir's NOC issue
"Usama called me multiple times and also tried to contact Usman Wahla, but Usman ignored both Usama's and my calls."
This is how Usman Wahla is playing with cricketers' careers and destroying PCT. Disgusting.

Wahab Riaz took to social media to express solidarity with Usama Mir, revealing that Mir had called him multiple times seeking help, but Wahla ignored their calls. Riaz stated, “Usama called me multiple times and also tried to contact Usman Wahla, but Usman ignored both Usama’s and my calls.” He further emphasized that this behavior was “disgusting” and showcased how Wahla was “playing with cricketers’ careers and destroying Pakistan cricket.”
