Bad luck for the talented fast bowler.
However, keep it up and hang on tough.
As they say in the great Urdu language, "only the top horse-riders fall in the battle fields."

Where is Aizaz Cheema this season ? He won a match for QG in the inaugural season in the final over by restricting the opposition.

Speedy recovery Umar Gul. You are a Champion!
The X-ray shows quite a fracture. I thought it would be a hairline fracture but this looks like a displaced fracture of the ulna. How did it happen? Was it a rearing thunder ball from Wahab?
