Naseem Shah stated, “This account of Naseem was recently hacked but now recovered successfully,” following a series of events that unfolded during the Pakistan Super League (PSL) match held at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on March 26, 2026.

The incident began when a controversial post from Shah’s account questioned the treatment of Maryam Nawaz during the PSL event, asking, “Why is she being treated like the queen at Lords?” This post, which was a quote retweet of a Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) media post, was deleted shortly after it was made.

Shah quickly clarified that the post did not reflect his views, emphasizing the impact of the hacking incident on his reputation. The fast bowler, who has played 20 Test matches and taken 60 wickets, was signed by Rawalpindiz for Rs86.5 million in the PSL auction.

In the same match, the Lahore Qalandars secured a convincing victory over the Hyderabad Kingsmen, winning by 69 runs. Fakhar Zaman was a standout performer, scoring 53 runs for the Qalandars.

The hacking incident has raised concerns about the security of social media accounts for public figures, especially in the sports arena. As Naseem Shah continues to navigate the aftermath of this situation, the cricket community remains attentive to any further developments.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the identity of the hacker or the methods used to compromise Shah’s account. The incident underscores the vulnerabilities that athletes face in the digital age.

As the PSL progresses, fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how Naseem Shah’s performance and public image are affected by this incident.
