Hasan Ali’s wife Samiya Arzoo is a Indian-origin and always raves about the variety, & quality of street food in Delhi. Hasan and Samiya got married five years ago, but this is the first time the Pakistani pacer has visited India for the World Cup. However, due to his sheer disappointment, Hasan won’t be playing any matches in Delhi, and his dream of relishing street food in Delhi is diminished.
To note, Pakistan will play all their World Cup matches across five venues, Chennai, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, & Kolkata. “I have been married for five years, and my wife talks about Delhi and its street food. I really wanted to travel to Delhi and try the food, but unfortunately, it won’t be possible,” Hasan said to Cricbuzz.
For the uninitiated, the Pakistani pacer was not originally selected in the provisional squad for the World Cup. Hasan came as a last-minute replacement for Naseem Shah. This is also the first time Hasan has traveled to India for the World Cup.

Hasan Ali: Pakistan off to an inauspicious start in lead up to WC, lose warm-up match to New Zealand
Speaking about Pakistan, they are off to a poor start in the build-up to the World Cup as they lost the warm-up match to New Zealand by five wickets in Hyderabad. While the batting clicked, the bowling looked lackluster as they conceded 345 runs. Hasan Ali took only one wicket in the game and gave away 66 runs.
Pakistan will play one warm-up game against Australia on Tuesday (October 3). Babar Azam & Co would be aiming to put on a much better display with bat and ball in hand. After the game against Australia, the Men in Green will begin their WC campaign against Netherlands on October 6.
