Shoaib Akhtar released a statement on Twitter afterwards, saying that because several videos were circulating on social media, he thought he should clarify the controversy.<br /><br />“Nauman Niaz was being obnoxious and he asked me to leave for no rhyme or reason and I don’t know why he said it. Then they went on a break.”<br /><br />Shoaib referred to himself as a “national star” who was abruptly insulted and brushed aside on national television.
