Pakistan’s former captain Wasim Akram criticised the Indian media for reporting fake news about him.
Wasim Akram took to Twitter and responded to the Times of India (TOI) which claimed that the former captain was interested in the position of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman.
Wasim wrote, “Please stop spreading such fake news. Get your sources right. TOI is one of India’s top and credible newspapers and such baseless news can only hurt that image. PCB chairman’s post is a specialised job and I was never interested in it. Thank God, I am content where I am in my life.”
After this, the news agency removed the story from their website.
