KARACHI (Web Desk) – Cricket legend Wasim Akram has pointed out the reason for decrease in interest of fans in Karachi-leg of the Pakistan Super League season nine (PSL 9).
The former pacer found it out after he, along with ex-skipper Misbahul Haq and others, got stuck in traffic jam in the southern port city of Karachi.
Actor Fakhar-e-Alam shared a video on social media platform, revealing their “terrible experience” on Karachi roads while going to the National Stadium for the PSL match.
In the video, Akram says: “We remained stuck in traffic for one and half hour and it took another hour after taking U-turn”.
“Now, I have understood why people avoid going to stadium to watch the match. When we could not make to the stadium, how the fans can,” he said while criticising the strategy of placing the containers for roadblocks.
“We need to resolve these issues,” he asserted.
The PSL has been an electrifying event for cricket fans in Karachi but this year a different atmosphere prevails in stadiums where empty stands are observed during the matches.
The cricket event received a better response in Lahore and Multan.
