Umar Akmal said, the people of Pakistan like cricket
But if the players’ secrets come out, people will stop watching cricket.
New Delhi. Pakistan batsman Umar Akmal, who is struggling with form and fitness, has strongly attacked his critics. Umar said that people should improve, otherwise I have such secrets of theirs that if they come out, it will be difficult to save respect. Umar also accused his elder brother Kamran Akmal of not supporting him. Umar and Kamran are cousins of Pakistan team captain Babar Azam.
Umar Akmal, who has been out of the Pakistan team for a long time, said that he refused to play in foreign leagues in order to play national team and domestic cricket, despite this he was not given a chance. Umar Akmal, who faced criticism for his TikTok video, said,
Can’t I enjoy the wedding of my brothers and sisters? In the Nadir Ali podcast, Umar said, is it a bad thing if I am dancing at a relative’s wedding? I would just say that those who say that why he is not maturing… I think most of the cricketers speak these things.
Umar Akmal said, I only say this much in this show that don’t force me because even his secrets are lying with me. If I reveal the secrets, he will lose his respect. People of Pakistan love to watch cricket, but if I reveal this secret then our people will stop watching cricket.
‘Whatever I did on my own’
Umar Akmal said in the same show that elder brother Kamran Akmal did not support me even a percent in my career. Whatever I did, I did on my own. Kamran Akmal recently announced his retirement from international cricket. He is included in the Junior Selection Committee of the Pakistan Cricket Board. Umar Akmal, who made his international debut in 2009, also said that in the last five years, no batsman has a better average than me in Pakistan’s middle order in Tests, ODIs and T20s.
