Naveen-ul-Haq pulls out of the Big Bash League (BBL) in retaliation to Australia’s cancelling the ODI series vs Afghanistan!
Afghanistan pacer announced his decision in a tweet, saying, “Time to say won’t be participating in the big bash after this until they stop these childish decisions that’s how they went about the one-off Test now ODI when a country is going through so much in place of being supportive you want to take the only reason of happiness from them #CA.”
