LONDON :South Africa’s batting hero Aiden Markram has taken longer than expected to deliver on his promise, but a match-winning century against Australia in the World Test Championship final is being hailed as the biggest in the country’s cricketing history.
Former Pakistan pacer Wasim Akram recently revealed an unheard story with Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan from his coaching days at Kolkata Knight Riders. Akram, who is one of the legendary players of Pakistan, was appointed as KKR's bowling coach in 2010. He then went to serve the franchise till 2016, including during the two title wins in 2012 and 2014. Talking about Shah Rukh Khan, who is also the co-owner of KKR, always stands like a wall for his team and Akram's revelation totally proved this.

Legendary Pakistan cricket team fast bowler Wasim Akram has found himself in a bit of controversy recently with some experts and former players taking aim at him. Amidst the ongoing chatter, old videos of former teammates Aamer Sohail and Ijaz Ahmed have resurfaced where they criticised Akram's decision-making during the 1999 World Cup final against Australia and blamed his toss call for their defeat. In the past few months, the 1990s generation of Pakistan cricket team were blamed for 'long-standing issues' following the national side's humiliating Champions Trophy 2025 campaign.
Pakistan began the Champions Trophy 2025 as the defending champions, but they never lived up to the tag. In fact, they were one of the first teams to be knocked out of the Champions Trophy 2025, a tournament that they were hosting. The capitulation that Pakistan had, led to widespread criticism. From lack of intent in the players to zero planning by the Pakistan Cricket Board, none were spared. Even nineties' stars faced criticism. The 90s was a time when Pakistan won the World Cup and notched some memorable wins.
The cricketing fraternity in Pakistan was left scratching its heads upon its failure to spot a single Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) official at the presentation ceremony after the conclusion of the ICC Champions Trophy final between India and Australia. ICC chairman Jay Shah could be seen on the stage, handing the trophy to the winning captain Rohit Sharma and distributing medals to all players. But, none of the PCB officials became part of the proceedings on the stage at any point in time despite Pakistan being the official hosts for the tournament.
A huge point of discussion during the Champions Trophy 2025 has been whether Team India got an advantage due to playing all of their games in Dubai. India played all their games at a neutral venue after they did not travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy, and several experts stated that it was an unfair advantage given to them. However, Pakistan legend Wasim Akram has stated that it would not have made a difference even if India had travelled to Pakistan for the tournament.
