Wasim Akram criticises PCB over Imran Khan's omission from their video, asks for apology

Colombo [Sri Lanka], August 17 (ANI): Pakistan's legendary pacer Wasim Akram criticised the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for neglecting the contribution of former captain Imran Khan in the country's cricketing history in their recently posted video.
After reaching Sri Lanka, the former Pakistan pacer took to his social media handle and asked PCB to delete the video and apologise to the "cricket legend" and the former Prime Minister of the country.
"After long flights and hours of transit before reaching Sri Lanka, I got the shock of my life when I watched PCB’s short clip on the history of Pakistan cricket minus the great Imran Khan… political differences apart but Imran Khan is an icon of world cricket and developed Pakistan into a strong unit in his time and gave us a pathway… PCB should delete the video and apologise," the former Pakistani pacer wrote.
