Earlier, Kaneria was in the news when former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar, disclosed that his teammates mistreated Kaneri🎃a because he was a Hindu.
“I used to get livid when anyone was discriminated on the basis of region or religion. A Hindu born in Pakistan is entitled to represent his country. When that Hindu (Kaneria) won us the Test series against England (in 2005), I criticized my teammates for mistreating him,” said Akhtar.
Then, Kaneria reacted to Akhtar’s statement and agreed that he was mistreated by his teammates in the Pakistan cricket team. Kaneria expressed that Akhtar had told the truth.
