During the match, former veteran batsman of West Indies cricket team Viv Richards and former captain of Pakistan cricket team Wasim Akram were seen having a special conversation. During this time, the Caribbean veteran told the name of the bowler whose bouncer he used to be shocked. The 73 -year -old former Caribbean batsman said, ‘Wasim Akram is the greatest left -handed bowler to play cricket. I have faced Wasim Akram’s fastest bouncer in my career.
Let us tell you that Viv Richards is counted among the great batsmen of the world. In such a situation, it is surprising to give his statement. But there was no match for Wasim Akram’s havoc. Even after his retirement, people can be heard praising his bowling.
