Afghan player Fazalhaq Farooqi has been shackled by the afghanistan team after he knocked down Rinku Singh of the indian team. It is said that he will not get a chance in the team for some time. The incident took place in the second match of the t20 series between india and Afghanistan. Then Rinku Singh was batting. He takes a single run, steps forward a few feet for another run, and then turns back to the bowler's end. Then Fazalhuq Farooqui did not want Rinku Singh to come in his way and pushed him with his knuckles.
Without stopping, he went near him again and knocked him down. While pushing and knocking him down, Rinku Singh tried to walk away quietly without even looking up at him. However, Fazlhaq Farooqui approached him and tried to woo him. Then the umpire stopped him. The issue did not explode as Rinku Singh did not protest. Fazlhaq Farooqi was left out of Afghanistan's squad for the third T20I after the incident.
Then there was a suspicion that the reason might be because of his wooing of Rinku Singh. He has been embroiled in some controversies before. He played for Sydney Thunder in the 2022 Big Bash League t20 series. He was then dropped from the team halfway through the series for misbehaving with a teammate. After the next twist, he refused to sign the contract with the afghanistan cricket organization. He did so because if he accepted the contract, he would not be able to participate in the t20 series in other countries. It is said that the afghanistan cricket administration has imposed some restrictions on the selection of Fazalhaq Farooqui, who has been caught in controversy in a row. Accordingly, it is said that his behavior will be monitored and accordingly he will get a place in the afghanistan team.
