In a shocking and explosive outburst, former Pakistan player Rashid Latif has launched a veiled attack on two of Pakistan's most iconic cricketers, Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis. Latif's scathing remarks have sent shockwaves through the cricketing world, leaving Pakistan cricket fans stunned.
During a recent appearance on 'Caught Behind', Latif made a cryptic comment, saying "Dubai ke laundon ne tabahi pehla diya hai" (The boys from Dubai have created a ruckus.) While Latif did not directly mention Akram and Younis, it was clear that his comments were aimed at the duo.
"Yeh Dubai ke laundon ne tabahi pehla diya hai. Dono ek dusre ke taarifen kar kar ke khush ho raha hai. Zindagi bhar ladte rahe, hume aag me phek diya aur...kamal log hai. Inke aage paisa phenko, yeh kuch bhi kardenge.
(The boys from Dubai have created a ruckus. They are happy praising each other. They fought throughout their career, which hurt Pakistan cricket...interesting people. Throw money in front of them, they will do anything.)
What triggered Rashid Latif to make remarks on Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis?
Rashid Latif's outburst was seemingly triggered by Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis's recent criticism of the Pakistan team. The two legends had expressed their disappointment with the team's performance in the ICC Champions Trophy, which apparently did not sit well with Latif.
The cricketing community has been left reeling in the aftermath of Latif's comments, with many fans and pundits taking to social media to express their outrage. Akram and Younis, widely regarded as two of Pakistan's greatest cricketers, have yet to respond to Latif's veiled attack.
As the controversy continues to unfold, one thing is certain – the reputation of Pakistan cricket has been dealt a significant blow.
