Former Pakistan skipper Misbah-ul-Haq has initiated strict legal proceedings against former teammate Ahmed Shehzad for defamation. The legal clash erupted after Shehzad made controversial remarks regarding the former Pakistan national cricket team captain on a private television channel.
Authorities have initiated action under cybercrime laws, and Ahmed Shehzad has been summoned to Lahore for questioning. The cybercrime authorities will review his explanation before deciding whether to register a First Information Report against the vocal cricket analyst and YouTube personality.
According to a detailed report published by ProPakistani.pk, the controversy stems from explosive accusations made by Ahmed Shehzad regarding promising wicketkeeper Haseebullah Khan.
Shehzad alleged that Peshawar Zalmi batting coach Misbah-ul-Haq was responsible for Haseebullah Khan not receiving his designated professional salary from the franchise management.
Misbah-ul-Haq challenged these financial claims, calling them false and damaging to his reputation. The formal defamation notice from Misbah-ul-Haq’s legal team reportedly demands a public retraction and a detailed clarification from Ahmed Shehzad regarding the controversial television statements.
"According to sources, Misbah has challenged the claims, terming them false and damaging to his reputation. The notice is said to demand a public retraction along with a clarification from Ahmed Shehzad regarding the statements," the report said.
Ahmed Shehzad’s Repeated Claims Lead To Legal Action From Misbah-ul-Haq
Ahmed Shehzad repeatedly leveled these serious allegations across multiple platforms. Misbah-ul-Haq decided to pursue strict legal action.
A formal complaint was registered, prompting the immediate start of an inquiry under cybercrime regulations to hold Ahmed Shehzad accountable for his continued public remarks.
An anonymous source close to Misbah-ul-Haq explained the reasoning behind the legal move. The report stated that while general cricket discussions are acceptable, repeatedly making false allegations can damage a professional reputation.
"If the discussion stays limited to cricket, there is no issue. However, allegations damage reputation. Even if something is not true, repeating it again and again makes people believe it. That is why action became necessary."
Ahmed Shehzad Prepares Legal Response As Dispute With Misbah-ul-Haq Continues
Following the delivery of the defamation notice, Ahmed Shehzad is consulting his personal legal team to prepare a comprehensive formal reply. Legal representatives closely monitoring the situation expect that Shehzad will submit his response to Misbah-ul-Haq’s legal team within the next few days.
This legal dispute is not the first time Ahmed Shehzad has publicly targeted Misbah-ul-Haq. Earlier this month, Shehzad claimed that Misbah-ul-Haq’s ego was the main reason the selectors ignored Haseebullah Khan for the recent bilateral series against Bangladesh.
During his international career, Ahmed Shehzad represented Pakistan across all three formats. He played 13 Test matches, 81 One Day Internationals, and 59 T20 Internationals. He scored 5,058 runs in international cricket before moving into full-time broadcasting.
Shehzad played 13 Tests, scoring 982 runs at an average of 40.91 with three centuries and four fifties. In white-ball cricket, he amassed 2,605 runs in 81 ODIs and 1,471 runs in 59 T20Is.
