Lahore: Test cricketer Ahmad Shahzad has presented a cheque of one million rupees to star athlete Arshad Nadeem for winning the silver medal at the World Athletics Championship in Budapest, Hungary. Ahmad Shahzad congratulated Arshad Nadeem on winning the medal and making Pakistan proud.
“Arshad Nadeem has created a new history by winning this medal,” said Ahmad Shahzad. “He will also win a medal for Pakistan in the Asian Games as well as in the Paris Olympics.” Arshad Nadeem made history last month as he clinched a silver medal, at the World Athletics Championship.
