Troubled Pak keeper Zulqarnain claims that media offered him big bucks for interviews | Troubled Pakistani wicketkeeper Zulqarnain Haider has claimed to have turned down lucrative offers from the media for disclosing the details of his sudden decision of fleeing to London and later announcing his retirement from international cricket. The
24-year-old wrote on his Facebook account that the British tabloid- News of the
World- had offered him lots of money for an interview, but he spoke to them without
taking a penny, the Daily Times reported. "They offered me lots of money but I
gave them the interview free of cost, but what was surprising was that they said
it would be half an hour thing but it went on for one and half hour," Haider wrote
on his account. "They were trying to ask hard questions but I told them they should
talk to the ICC about it," he added. The troubled wicketkeeper also wrote on his
account that although the electronic media had also offered him big money for
giving interviews, he had no intention of "cash or anything". Even if he took
money, he would ask them to give it directly to a charity, he added. "I don't
want cash or anything in my hands they will pay to charity," he wrote.
