What do you do when you found a former international cricketer driving a private cab that you got boarded? Really it gives a surprise and shocked you to some extent.

This is exactly what happened to one  Ganesh Birle.  Ganesh Birle found former Pakistan off spinner Arshad Khan driving a cab in Sydney. Arshad Khan made his debut for Pakistan in 1997-98 against West Indies and appeared in 9 Tests and 58 ODIs. Ganesh Birle, posted a photo on Facebook of the former Pakistan cricketer driving an Uber Taxi in Sydney.

Here is a Facebook post that claims Arshad is driving cab.

"He was the driver of our cab and we started chatting, he told me that he is from Pakistan and lives in Sydney. Also that he has been to Hyderabad many times when he was playing for Lahore Badshahs something in ICL. After which I asked him his full name and then I was shocked to see his face which I could partially recognize. I shook has his hand and left.

He was avoiding the conversation all the time, but at the same time he couldn't help but talk about his India connection. Imagine he introduced himself as 'I from Pakistan [sic] but I have been here in Sydney for long time now'. Also like a good Uber driver he offered us water and stuff when we sat in the car," Ganesh Birle posted on his Facebook account on Monday.

Arshad khan performed credibly in the 2005 Bangalore Test, which Pakistan won in the last session to draw the series.
