5 Pakistani legends who would have flourished in PSL

Sakshi
Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis would have been perfect for T20 tournaments

He was a combination of talent and glamour, similar to a T20 league. Akram was considered perfect in every sense as a bowler. The left-armer swung the ball in both directions and troubled the batsmen with his deadly bouncers and Yorkers.

Along with this, he was known to smash the ball as hard as he could, which would make him a standard T20 player. Nothing better than a bowler who can be trusted with a few big hits down the order in crucial situations.

Akram was a successful successor to Imran Khan as Pakistan’s captain in Tests and One-Day Internationals (ODI), so along with bowling, blind hitting towards the end, he brought along captaincy experience as well. Not just Lahore Qalandars, because he hailed from there, all the franchises in PSL would be ready to shell any amount for the legendary Pakistani fast bowler.
