Pakistan pacer Hasan Ali who has been plagued by fitness issues is likely to make quick comeback after positive rehabilitation session with Pakistan Cricket Board.

PCB has issued a statement that that Hasan Ali underwent a two-hour online rehabilitation session under the supervision of Lahore-based neurosurgeon Asif Bashir who is part of the PCB medical team.

“We consulted some of the best and most experienced specialists and it is heartening to hear their feedback following the opening online rehabilitation session in which Hasan showed no signs of symptomatic regression,” PCB statement quoted Director of Medical and Sports Sciences of the PCB, Dr Sohail Saleem.

“We will continue to monitor his progress for the next five weeks before collectively making future decisions. But one thing is for certain, he is under the treatment of the very best in the business and hopefully he will return fitter and stronger to competitive cricket without any surgery,” statement said.

PCB has also said that they will provide financial assistance to Hasan Ali during rehabilitation.

“Hasan is one of our assets and heroes of the ICC Champions Trophy 2017 victory. It is the PCB’s responsibility to look after him during these difficult times so that he focuses and works solely on his fitness,” PCB Chief Executive Wasim Khan said.

“Hasan is a young and energetic cricketer who has a lot of cricket left in him. Like most of his followers, the PCB will like to see him regain complete fitness so that he can resume normal services for the Pakistan men’s national cricket team. Till that time, the PCB will provide him financial assistance from the PCB Welfare Fund, which exists exactly for this purpose.”

The 25-year-old Hasan Ali was diagnosed with excessive stress in his lower back by the PCB medical panel in late April.
