ISLAMABAD: Controversial Pakistan
pacer Shoaib Akhtar`s close doctor friend, Tauseef Razaq,
said the fast bowler had always consulted him before any
medical treatment, but, didn`t heed his advise against going
for liposuction surgery.
"I was against Shoaib undergoing liposuction surgery,
as it was not needed. But he acted against my advice",
he said.
He also rubbished Pakistan Sports Board Director General
Dr. Waqar Ahmed`s view on Akhtar`s fitness. Dr. Ahmed had
suggested that it would take Akhtar three to five months
before he starts playing once again.
"Shoaib is likely to be match-fit within four weeks
time," Dr.Razaq countered.
Sources said the Rawalpindi Express has lost about 12-13
kgs of weight after liposuction surgery. The Pakistan Cricket
Board (PCB) is cross over the surgery, saying Akhtar should
have informed it before undergoing the operation.—Agency
