'Another name you guys mess up' - Wasim Akram hilariously trolls Australia commentators for mispronouncing Fakhar Zaman

Wasim Akram trolled Australian commentators during the recently concluded three-match Test series between Australia and Pakistan, which the visitors lost 0-3. The former Pakistan cricketer was a part of the commentary panel throughout the series.

Meanwhile, in a video doing rounds on social media, Akram could be seen engaging in a humorous exchange with Australian commentators. The former cricketer hilariously trolled his counterparts for their incorrect pronunciation of the word "Fakhar". The legendary Pakistan cricketer can be heard saying, “There’s another name you guys mess up as well. Try to pronounce Fakhar.”

He also discussed an incident with his wife Shaniera and said, "So Shaniera came to Pakistan and my son’s friend’s name was Fakhar. He brought his friend who was about 12-year-old and he said, ‘this is my friend, Fakhar’. She said, ‘hang on a minute’. Because Australians can’t pronounce K in their language, it took her about two years to pronounce his name." Meanwhile, the commentators from Australia, including Akram, further mentioned an incident when Mark Waugh was not able to pronounce 'Fakhar Zaman' on stage.

Pakistan suffer 3-0 defeat 

Pat Cummins-led Australia began the three-match Test series with a massive 360-run win at the Optus Stadium in Perth. Following this, the hosts won the second game at Melbourne Cricket Ground with ease, winning by 79 runs. In the third and final game played at Sydney Cricket Ground, Australia put on a fantastic display to whitewash the series 3-0.

Batting first after winning the toss, Pakistan scored 313 and 115 in their first and second innings in the final Test. Australia, on the other hand, could score only 299 runs in their first innings. Australia won the match by eight wickets when David Warner (57) struck an incredible half-century in his final Test innings, helping them chase a total of 130. Marnus Labuschagne also contributed significantly, scoring an unbeaten 62 off just 73 deliveries.
