Shoaib Akhtar funny against Rashid Latif

Former Pakistani players Shoaib Akhtar, Rashid Latif, Saqlain Mushtaq and Mohammad Wasim are back in the business. The Pakistan West Indies series kicked off last night and these cricketers were back on the TV channel as experts.


Shoaib once again gave all the hilarious and funny touch to the show. He has always been witty telling the audience a lot of funny incidents about the players and even himself. This time he shared one of his team mate and co expert Rashid Latif.

Shoaib mimicked Rashid Latif how he got a stiff neck in his playing days and used to turn his whole body in order to listen to any one from his left or right. It was a hilarious move from the former Pakistani speed sensation. Shoaib always does these kind of acts on the show.

Shoaib is a fear for batsmen Pakistani cricketer. He is known as the fastest bowler ever in the history of cricket and has bowled the fastest delivery officially recorded at a top speed of 161.3km/h. Akhtar was nicknamed as "Rawalpindi Express", as a tribute to his hometown and fast bowling. He is widely acknowledged as a legend in cricket history & one of the greatest fast bowlers ever.

Akhtar made his Test debut in November 1997 as an opening fast bowler and played his first One Day International 3 months later. On 1 April 2008, Akhtar was banned for 5 years for publicly criticising the Pakistan Cricket Board. In October 2008, the Lahore High Court in Pakistan suspended the five-year ban and Akhtar was selected in the 15-man squad for the Twenty20 Quadrangular Tournament in Canada. Pakistani judge Rana Bhagwandas once stated that Akhtar is a legend of Pakistan cricket. Akhtar retired from international cricket after the 2011 World Cup.

Akhtar has a number of fast bowling records. He has bowled at speeds of 159.3 km/h, 160 km/h, 159 km/h and 158.4 km/h. The fastest was against England in the 2003 Cricket World Cup when the ball was recorded at 161.3 km/h.
