Reports of Gul-Aamer scuffle in NZ

Pakistani pacers Muhammad Aamer and Umar Gul were reportedly embroiled in a scuffle after the side's win over New Zealand in the second Test.

According to a report in the 'Express TV', the duo was fined Rs 200,000 each for getting physical with each other in Wellington.

But when contacted, the Pakistan team manager in New Zealand Abdul Raquib denied the story.

"No fight took place between Aamer and Umar Gul and they have not been fined by the management," Raquib told PTI today.

"Look I don't know from where this story has come but no such major incident took place and I don't know about any serious fight between the players," he said.

This is not the first time that such incidents have been reported from a touring Pakistan squad abroad.
