Islamabad United Press Release
April 20, 2025
Islamabad United regret to announce that Australian all-rounder Matt Short has been ruled out of the remainder of the HBL PSL 10 due to a recurrence of the injury he sustained during the IC Champions Trophy earlier this year.
Following his arrival in Pakistan, Matt had shown encouraging signs of recovery. However, discomfort resurfaced during training sessions, prompting immediate assessment by Islamabad United’s medical team in close consultation with Cricket Australia’s medical staff.
After a thorough review, the joint decision was made in the best interest of the player’s long-term fitness and career. As a result, Matt Short has returned to Australia to continue his rehabilitation under the supervision of Cricket Australia.
Islamabad United remain fully committed to the well-being of all our players and extend our support to Matt during his recovery. We thank him for his professionalism and positive presence in the camp and wish him a swift and complete recovery.
