According to sources, broadcasters were not happy with Pathan bringing in personal grudges on air and even on his social media handle.
“Pathan had a fallout with a couple of players a few years ago. Since then, he has not shied away from referring to them aggressively. The matter was raised that other junior players got caught in the crossfire. He has been accused of taking potshots at them on social media platform even if he didn’t name them,” sources close to the development said. Pathan has now announced the launch of his YouTube channel.
