By Saj Sadiq (May 2, 2025)

In our latest exclusive interview, Umer Khan, the former PSL emerging star and left-arm spinner who dazzled with 19 wickets for Karachi Kings, opens up about his abrupt exit from Pakistan cricket and new journey in the USA.

Umar Khan had an economy rate of 7.55 and dismissed several notable players, including AB de Villiers, Corey Anderson, Shoaib Malik, Shane Watson, James Vince, Dan Christian, Luke Ronchi, Sohail Akhtar, Hussain Talat, and Shan Masood in PSL 2019.

From being sidelined despite stellar performances to rebuilding his career abroad, Umer shares raw, unfiltered truths about favoritism, broken systems, and his ambitions for the future.

Key topics include:

They sidelined me despite performing in PSL: Umer’s shocking revelation about being dropped after topping domestic charts.

Favoritism in Pakistan cricket: Why talented players struggle to break through.

The mental toll of being ignored: How sidelining performers damages careers.

USA cricket’s rise: Leagues, facilities, and why Pakistani players are migrating.

Coaches showed me their attitude: Umer’s bitter experience with management.

Future plans: Representing the USA and reigniting his cricketing dreams.
