During the sixth match of the Bangladesh Premier League 2024 between Fortune Barishal and Khulna Tigers, Shoaib Malik’s performance drew attention for the wrong reasons. Despite the Tigers winning the match by eight wickets, Malik, a spinner, bowled three no-balls in one over, raising suspicions among fans regarding match-fixing. Social media platforms buzzed with reactions regarding Malik’s actions, with some fans alleging that the Pakistani veteran cricketer might have been involved in fixing the match.
While there is speculation surrounding Malik’s performance, it remains to be seen if there will be an investigation into the matter.
