Shoaib Akhtar's sensational claim

The video is doing the rounds at a time when former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar made a sensational claim about the mistreatment of Danish Kaneria based on his religion. In a video that went viral, Akhtar rehashed the plight of Hindus in Pakistan and was seen talking about the bigotry some players faced because of their religion. Akhtar spoke about Kaneria, who was the second Hindu after Anil Dalpat to play for the Pakistan cricket team. Kaneria is in fact a cousin of Dalpat. Citing examples of the mistreatment faced by Kaneria, Shoaib Akhtar claimed that he was even barred from picking up food from the same table as others because of his religion.
