Wasim Akram was criticised by former Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Khan Afridi after his team, Karachi Kings, lost three games in a row during the eighth season of the PSL, or Pakistan Super League.
Afridi said on a TV show that Akram should do what he is supposed to do and make time for the Kings.
“Wasim bhai should give Karachi Kings time if he is in charge of them. Australia is too far away to be able to lead the team. Giving your time is part of being a professional “He emphasised.
Afridi said that the Kings have a good mix of players, but they need to be more sure of themselves.
“I think Wasim Bhai should be on the team. It’s not fair to join a team that’s already been put together “he added.

Kings also tried a new leader, but that didn’t help, and they lost their first three PSL 8 games. After Babar Azam was traded with Shoaib Malik from Peshawar Zalmi for Shoaib Malik, Imad Wasim became the new captain.
Kings have lost to Peshawar Zalmi, Islamabad United, and Quetta Gladiators so far. They only stopped losing when they played Lahore Qalandars on Sunday.
