Pakistan’s legendary pacer Wasim Akram recently shared his top three cricketers from the nation’s rich cricketing history. While many encouraged him to include himself, Akram humbly left himself out, selecting three other cricketing icons.
At number three, Akram chose his long-time bowling partner, Waqar Younis, acknowledging that it would be impossible to exclude him from any list of Pakistan’s greatest cricketers. “Number three is Waqar Younis,” Akram stated.

Finally, for number one, Akram selected Pakistan’s World Cup-winning captain, Imran Khan. Reflecting on Imran’s impact as an allrounder, Akram praised his leadership and cricketing prowess, calling him a “proper allrounder” from a golden era alongside cricket greats like Ian Botham and Kapil Dev.
