    Published on

    Pakistan’s highly rated teenage fast bowler Naseem Shah has been taken to hospital with an infection.

    The 19-year-old will miss the fifth T20I against England later on Wednesday and his availability for the rest of the seven-match series will be decided after assessing his medical reports.

    Naseem played the first match of the series and went for 41 runs in his four wicket-less overs.

    The series is tied 2-2 after four matches in Karachi. The remaining three are in Lahore.

    England are on their first tour of Pakistan for 17 years.
