The fast bowler in a released statement said that unfortunately, he has to pull himself out from PSL 6 due to some personal reasons. Some things are more important than cricket and nothing is more important than family.

He further added, "I am thankful to Islamabad United for their support and understanding. This team truly is a family that stands with you through thick and thin. I wish the team very best of luck for the remaining PSL matches."

Islamabad United skipper Shadab Khan admitted Hasan's absence will be a huge loss for the side and said some things are more important than cricket.
