Pakistan Super League 2022: Babar Azam's Karachi King continued its disastrous run in the PSL 2022. Under Babar's captaincy, Karachi Kings' performance has continued to decline and are currently win-less in the PSL 2022 with 8 consecutive defeats to their name. On Wednesday (February 16th), Karachi Kings suffered yet another loss at the hands of Multan Sultan. 

After Karachi's defeat, a video has surfaced on social media in which Karachi Kings' mentor Wasim Akram is seen having a rather 'angry' and 'heated' conversation with captain Babar Azam. Kings' and Pakistan's captain Babar is seen providing a rather calm explanatory reply to Wasim. This video has given light to the rumours that maybe there's a problem in the Karachi Kings' team.

However, after this video went viral, Wasim Akram himself explained on his official Twitter account. The tweet read, 'Hello ! Surprised to see reactions on my talking to Babar at the boundary last night. What I was saying was ‘why our bowlers are not bowling yorkers or slower ones offside off’.nothing else . Babar is a wonderful boy and has tried his best. And what he wants for dinner'
