Pakistan legendary pacer Wasim Akram became 52-year-old on Sunday. While it was the day 3 of the second Test between England vs Pakistan at Headingley (Leeds), former Pakistan pacer Waqar Younis celebrated Akram’s birthday by cutting a cake. Later, he apologised to fans for cutting a cake during the Ramadan month.

Younis took the twitter account and posted, “Apologise to everyone for cutting cake on Waseem Bhai’s birthday yesterday..We should have respected Ramadan and the people who were fasting. It was a poor act on our behalf #SORRY”

Akram and Younis were lethal pace partners during their international career for Pakistan. Both played total 258 international matches (61 Tests and 197 ODIs) together.

Coming to the second Test between England and Pakistan, England beat Pakistan by an innings and 55 runs and drew the 2-match Test series by the 1-1 margin.

After electing to bat first, Pakistan was bundled out for just 174 runs in the first innings. All the English pacers bowled very well in that innings.

In reply, England managed to score 363 runs before getting all-out. Jos Buttler played the highest knock of unbeaten 80 runs while other top-order batsmen played some crucial 40’s in that innings. England earned 189 runs lead at the end of the first innings clash.

Pakistan again showcased a poor batting performance in the second innings as they were bundled out for just 134 runs and lost the Test by an innings and 55 runs. Apart from Imam-ul-Haq (34 runs), Azhar Ali (11 runs) and Usman Salahuddin (33 runs), none of the other batsmen reached the double-digit score.

England pacers again bowled well in the second innings while the 20-year-old off-spinner Dominic Bess had a bowling figure of 11-1-33-3. Stuart Broad took maximum wickets in the whole game as he grabbed total six wickets. Buttler won the Player of the Match award for his brilliant knock.

Earlier, Pakistan had won the first Test of the series at Lord’s by 9 wickets.
