Zohaib not playing in India’s World Cup

The curtain of the T20 World Cup rose on February 7. The United Arab Emirates has not yet entered the field. They will start their World Cup campaign with a match against New Zealand next Tuesday.

The Emirates suffered a setback before this important match. They may have to play the entire tournament without the team's star batsman Mohammad Zohaib. During the tournament, he was accused of breaking discipline. For this reason, he has already been removed from the team and sent home. However, the Emirates Cricket Board has not officially announced anything in this regard. Several Indian media outlets have reported this news, citing sources in the board.

Zohaib has been accused of drinking alcohol and disorderly behavior towards women. Such behavior has been seen as against the team's discipline in the midst of a big tournament like the World Cup. For this reason, it is known that he will also be investigated.

The 28-year-old batsman has played 10 matches in international cricket for the Emirates. He is a regular face in T20s. His absence will definitely hurt the team.
