Fans too sent out wishes for the cricketer. "Inzamam Ul Haq suffered a heart attack. Alhumdullilah is stable now. May Allah gives you health," a user tweeted. "Our most heartfelt and sincere prayers for the speedy and complete recovery of Inzamam ul Haq, who suffered a heart attack and had to undergo an emergency angioplasty procedure. Get well soon, legend," one more user added. "Let’s all admire what an incredible player Inzamam ul Haq was and keep our fingers crossed he makes a speedy recovery from his heart attack," a tweet read.
Earlier, Inzamam has clarified that he did not suffer a heart attack, after undergoing angioplasty in Lahore. “I want to thank everyone in Pakistan and around the world for praying for my health. I want to thank the Pakistan people, and cricketers from Pakistan and around the world who sent their well-wishes,” said the former batsman.
“I saw reports saying I had suffered a heart attack. I did not. I went to my doctor for a routine check-up, who said they wanted to conduct an angiography. During angiography, they noted an artery of mine was blocked, so they inserted stents to alleviate that problem. It was successful and easy, and I came back home after just 12 hours at the hospital. I feel fine,” he added.
“I went to the doctor because I felt a very slight bit of discomfort. It wasn’t even close to the heart area, but the stomach. Had I delayed getting it checked out, doctors said the heart could have been damaged,” Inzamam concluded.
