KARACHI: Saqlain Mushtaq, former Pakistan spin wizard, disclosed Wednesday he brought his wife into his hotel room and hid her in a cupboard the day before the 1999 World Cup final in London.
Saqlain further said he was compelled to keep his wife with him as a lot of people blamed the Pakistani players of going out with other girls.
Saqlain shared his memories saying that her wife, Sana, was with him in his room despite of strict ban by management and when officials came to check out the players’ rooms she had to hide in cupboard.
Saqlain Mushtaq who invented mystery delivery “doosra” -- a delivery which spins the other way from normal off-spin, was one of the top off-spinners of the world in his prime.
