Raza claimed in a show that Indian bowlers might be benefiting from using a different ball and that’s why they are able to take more wickets and trouble the opposition as compared to other teams. He also stated that DRS is being manipulated to favour the Indian team.
Shami shared a post on Instagram story and lashed out at him for Raza’s bizarre comments.
“Sharam karo yaar game par focus karo na ki faltu bakwas par kabi to dusre ki success ko enjoy kia karo chii yar. ICC World Cup hai apk local tournament nahi hai or Ap player hi the na (Have some shame, focus on the game and not on rubbish statements. Enjoy someone else’s success, rubbish, this is the ICC World Cup not your local tournament).
“Wasim bhai ne samjhaya hai explain kia tha phir bhi. hahahahaha. Apne player apne Wasim Akram par yakhin nahi apko. Apna tarif karne mein lage hai janab apto just like a wow (Wasim Akram had explained even then. At least trust your own player, trust your Wasim Akram. You are busy praising your own self),” Shami posted on his Instagram story.
Earlier, Akram also lashed out at Raza for his comments.
“I’ve been reading been reading about it from last couple of days. I want to have same things these guys are having, sounds like fun because their mind isn’t there,” Akram said on ARY News.
“Beizatti apni toh karani hai saadi bhi na karao duniya vich (You are embarrassing everyone). It’s a simple thing: An umpire brings with himself a box containing 12 balls. The team bowling first gets to choose two balls – option 1 and option 2. The umpire keeps the balls in each pocket,” Akram said.
Meanwhile, India, who have already qualified for the semis, will face Netherlands in their last league stage match on Sunday.
