Pakistan Exposed: Moin Khan Claims Indian Balls Have GPS Trackers! Are We Witnessing The Rise of 'Smart Cricket'?

MUMBAI – In a revelation that has sent shockwaves (and giggles) through the cricketing world, former Pakistan captain and legendary wicket-keeper Moin Khan has made a sensational claim: Indian cricket balls are reportedly fitted with GPS trackers. Speaking from what appeared to be a slightly under-lit room on a sports channel, Khan suggested this high-tech espionage is the secret behind India’s recent string of successes and Pakistan's 'mysterious' fielding lapses.

"Bhaijaan, yeh log ball ko control karte hain! Hamare bowlers ko lagta hai woh wicket ki taraf jaa rahe hain, but suddenly ball goes for a boundary. GPS laga hai, pakka!" (Brother, these people control the ball! Our bowlers think they are going towards the wicket, but suddenly the ball goes for a boundary. GPS is attached, for sure!)

Khan elaborated on his theory, suggesting that tiny, undetectable microchips embedded within the Kookaburra and SG balls allow Indian batsmen to anticipate deliveries with uncanny precision, and fielders to always be "just a little bit off" when a crucial catch is presented. He even hinted that the technology might be "remotely controlled" from the dressing room by a "special ops analyst" on a gaming console. Sources close to the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), who wished to remain anonymous, confirmed that they are now inspecting every single cricket ball with a magnifying glass and a metal detector, albeit without success so far. One groundsman apparently found a 'chip' in an old practice ball, which later turned out to be a piece of chewing gum. However, the discovery did net him a hefty ₹10 Lakhs 'discretionary bonus' from PCB for his 'vigilance.'

"Moin bhai needs to upgrade his conspiracy theories! Next, he'll say Kohli's bat has an auto-aim feature. Maybe the GPS is just guiding the ball straight to his own team's dropped catches?" – An unnamed BCCI official quipped, barely suppressing a laugh.

While the International Cricket Council (ICC) has yet to formally respond to Khan's explosive claims, insiders suggest they are too busy trying to figure out if DRS can detect 'psychic' edges. Meanwhile, Indian fans are already demanding to know where they can buy these 'GPS-enabled' balls for their gully cricket matches, hoping to finally hit that elusive six over the neighbour's terrace. The future of cricket might just involve a post-match data dump of ball trajectories and secret navigation routes! Pakistan, however, is reportedly considering playing their next series exclusively with tennis balls.
