Following his current ankle injury suffered during a game against South Africa, Pakistan’s (left-handed) opening batsman Saim Ayub was given conflicting information. Despite the seriousness of the injury—a fracture has been confirmed—medical assessments have ruled out any long-term harm.

Left handed batter and bowler Saim Ayub was flown to London by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for a thorough medical examination because the 2025 Champions Trophy is quickly approaching.

Saim Ayub received advice from famous expert Dr. Jeyaseelan, who examined his tests and reports, together with assistant coach Azhar Mahmood. After the medical exam, Saim Ayub was told that his condition had stabilized and that he could now carefully place weight on the wounded ankle.

Rest 6 Months

Saim Ayub’s availability for the International Cricket Council (ICC) Champions Trophy 2025 is still pending; a decision regarding his participation in Pakistan’s provisional squad will rely on additional medical examinations and tests.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi has taken a personal interest in Ayub’s recovery, making sure he gets top-notch care. Dr. Jeyaseelan has recommended a (6)-month rest period necessary for a full recovery. Additional advice with a team of specialists in London are expected to include more examinations, such as X-rays, for completing his treatment plan.

Left handed batter and bowler Saim Ayub is a beneficial value to Pakistan cricket, according to Chairman PCB, who also confirmed the board’s commitment to giving all the resources required for his recovery.

Whereas Saim Ayub expressed relief and gratitude for the assistance and medical attention he has received. He is committed to getting back to the field stronger than before and is still hopeful about how he is healing.
