Even though Pakistan carried an extremely volatile batting lineup for the most of his career, Akram ensured that his country's flag flew high on a regular basis. The left-armer tasted victory on 199 of his 356 ODIs. In those matches, he picked 326 scalps at an astonishing average of 18.86 and spectacular economy-rate of 3.70. While he may have registered 6 five-wicket hauls in won matches, the abiding memory of his memorable career will be the game-changing spell against England in the 1992 World Cup final at Melbourne.
