Shoaib Akhtar (Screen grab from the video)

Disappointed with Pakistans dismal loss against West Indies in the teams first match in ICC World Cup 2019, former Pakistan cricketer and pacer Shoaib Akhtar released a video on his YouTube channel, in which he called Pakistan skipper Sarfaraz Ahmed ‘fat’.

Lashing out at Ahmed for being unfit, Akhtar said ?When Sarfaraz Ahmed came for the toss, his stomach was sticking out and his face was so fat. Hes the first captain I have seen who’s so unfit. He was not able to move across and was also struggling with wicket-keeping.

After Pakistan batsmen gave away quick wickets in the match, Akhtars reaction to the match was Speechless. Akhtar, however, after the match backed the men in green and appealed to everybody to support the Pakistan cricket team.

Speechless.

Ok the match is over. Recollecting my thoughts and emotions.
We have to back these boys, they are representing our nation. They need our support throughout the World Cup. #PAKvWI #CWC19

Sharing a video, wherein he lashed out at Ahmed, Akhtar said, It’s a disappointing performance of Team Pakistan, let’s not disheart them more and back them up.
