Wasim Akram leaves Islamabad United
The young bowler has caught the eye of Pakistan's legendary Wasim Akram and ha an action that is distinctly similar to the left-arm pacer. A video of the young child bowling went viral on Thursday.
Video of a young boy bowling at a single stump emerged and was quickly circulated around the Pakistan cricket community — with fans marvelling at his ability to bowl with such control, pace and swing at such a remarkably young age.
Older cricketers have role to play, says Wasim Akram
The video soon landed in front of Sultan of Swing Wasim Akram.
The champion left-armer, who claimed 414 Test wickets at an average of 23.62 and a further 502 ODI scalps, described the youngster as a “serious talent” and started the search for the unknown star.
