Khushdil Shah involved in crowd trouble during NZ-Pakistan ODI at Mount Maunganui

Open Extended Reactions

An altercation between Pakistan cricketer Khushdil Shah and spectators during the third ODI between New Zealand and Pakistan in Mount Maunganui led to the ejection of two spectators from the venue.

According to a statement released by the PCB, the spectators were Afghanistan nationals shouting anti-Pakistan slogans. ESPNcricinfo has reached out to New Zealand Cricket for comment and clarification of the events.

The incident came to light with a photograph that showed Khushdil - who wasn't playing the game - trying to go over the boundary rope during the second innings to confront someone who wasn't pictured in the frame. He looked agitated, while security held him back, purportedly avoiding a more direct confrontation.
