Pakistan Great Shoaib Akhtar Unveils Motion Poster Of His Biopic. Here's The Release Date

Biopics on sportspersons are nothing new in India. However, this time Pakistan pace great Shoaib Akhtar has announced the launch of his Biopic titled - "Rawalpindi Express - Running against the odds" in a post on social media. The former Pakistan cricket team pacer played 46 Tests, 163 ODIs and 15 T20Is taking 178, 247 and 19 wickets in the three formats respectively. However, more than the number of his wickets, it was his speed that terrified batters. He holds the record of the fastest recorded delivery in cricket of 161kmph (vs New Zealand, 2002).

South Africa's Quinton de Kock says it will become difficult for players to participate in all three formats of cricket if more games continue to be added to the sport's packed schedule.
