A Pakistani court has reportedly issued an arrest warrant for all-rounder Umar Akmal for violating traffic rules and fighting with a policeman.
Currently, Akmal is in Bangladesh as part of the team playing in the Asia Cup tournament.

Akmal and captain Misbah-ul Haq made a fifth-wicket stand of 121 in the opening match of the Asia Cup, where he hit 74 off 72 balls with seven boundaries and three sixes.
