KARACHI: Legendary Pakistan cricketer Wasim Akram was “incredibly sad” to see “empty stadium in Karachi” during the first T20I against West Indies.
The three-match T20I series which began on Monday, saw the return of international cricket to Pakistan after New Zealand flew back hours before the scheduled start of their tour due to security concerns. A few days later, England too pulled out of the Pakistan tour but due to different reasons.
Akram took to Twitter to express his disappointments due to the low turn up at National Stadium in Karachi. Akram expected to see more considering the performance of the Babar Azam-led side in last few months.

“Incredibly sad to see an empty stadium in Karachi for the #PAKvWIt20 especially after the performance of Pakistan Team in the last month. I’m pretty sure I know why but I want to hear from you! Tell me, where is the crowd and why??” tweeted the former Pakistan captain on Tuesday.
