Naseem Shah's recent recognition comes after an unfortunate injury during the Asia Cup 2023. During Pakistan's second game against India, he left the field in the 46th over due to a shoulder injury. Fortunately, it was not a recurrence of a prior shoulder injury, but a muscle injury just below his bowling shoulder. Naseem Shah underwent a successful surgery to address the injury, which has unfortunately ruled him out of participating in the ICC World Cup 2023.
