10 cricketers who got arrested for weird reasons

7. Wasim Akram

In this incident, it was not only the legendary Wasim Akram who got arrested but in fact, it was a collective arrest which included Waqar Younis and Aaqib Javed as well. The incident took shape in the Caribbean when the trio was arrested on the charges of possessing marijuana. 

The incident occurred when the Pakistan team reached Grenada from Georgetown and the trio of Wasim, Waqar and Aaqib Javed along with other players went straight to the beach from their hotel. The visiting players were then met by two unknown men who claimed to be their fans but moments later they came forward with cigarette butts which were picked from the sand near the cricketers and called for an arrested by presenting themselves as the policemen. 

However, the players were not held guilty unless there was a scientific test which could prove them positive.
