"What my son has done, or what he faced, I hope no other player has to go through this," said Hanif. "He was pressurised too much while playing matches at the U19 level. He was disappointed and left all cricket behind and went into a deep depression. I tried to motivate him but he did this due to the injustices and mistreatment he faced at the U19 level.”
