A former cricketer from Pakistan who had turned commentator Wasim Akram hilariously trolled his Australian colleagues over their mispronounciation of the name 'Fakhar'. Sharing his observation, the legendary Pakistan pacer, who was a part of the commentary panel during the recently concluded Australia vs. Pakistan Test series, asked his fellow commentators to pronounce the word, which led to a funny exchange. The video of the conversation has gone viral on social media. Akram said in a video, "There is another name you guys mess up as well," adding, "Try to pronounce Fakhar." What follows are extremely funny reactions from his fellow commentators.
Watch it here.
Wasim Akram had earlier criticised Pakistan's decision to rest fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi in the third and final Test against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Akram warned players to decide if they want to be the greats of their sport or millionaires by playing T20 cricket. After Pakistan lost the series 2-0, Shaheen was rested for the final Test in Sydney.
Australia went on a clean sweep of the three-match Test series against Pakistan by winning the final game by eight wickets.
