An Indian doctor, who treated Pakistani batsman Mohammad Rizwan, remained astonished by the manner in which the opener recovered ahead of the semi-final clash against Australia.

Ahead of the semi-finals, the opener was down with the flu and spent two nights admitted to a Dubai hospital.

He was undergoing treatment in the ICU.

He reportedly had developed a severe chest infection and was given special medical attention, reports Geo News.

“Rizwan had a strong desire to play for his nation in the crucial knockout match. He was strong, determined and confident. I am astonished at the pace he had recovered,” Dr Saheer Sainalabdeen, specialist pulmonologist at Medeor Hospital, Dubai, who treated the cricketer, told Khaleej Times.

The Pakistani opener hammered 67 runs off 52 balls in the semi-finals.

Australia beat Pakistan to cruise to the final of the T20 World Cup.
