World Cup 2023: League matches have come to an end in World Cup 2023. Players like Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell and Quinton de Kock have performed brilliantly in ODI World Cup 2023. Most of the team's batsmen have scored centuries when the team was in trouble. But Shoaib Akhtar, the former fast bowler of Pakistan (Shoaib Akhtar Laments Two Ball Rule), has a different opinion about this. In ODI World Cup 2023, the ball is changed after 25 overs. Speaking on which, Shoaib Akhtar said that today's cricket is a fraud. Today's players cannot score a century with a soft ball. I respect Sachin Tendulkar and Inzamam because they used to score centuries with soft balls.
Today's cricket is a fraud - Shoaib Akhtar
Pakistan's former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar said during a conversation in a show, 'Today's cricket is a fraud. Nobody scores a single-ball century these days. Score a single ball 100 against the likes of Shane Warne, Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis and Saqlain Mushtaq. Why do I respect Sachin Tendulkar, Inzamam-ul-Haq or Jacques Kallis?'
I am not jealous of anyone's success - Shoaib Akhtar
Akhtar further said, 'Now we have to score 100 runs in 50 overs with soft ball. Even the outside fielder is only 6 standing. So what kind of cricket is this? I am not saying that today's cricketers are playing badly. Yes, he is playing well, making money, his fan following is growing. I am not the kind of person to be jealous of anyone's success. But I would say play in that era.'
