Social media was surprised after Pakistan wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal received an award for the best wicket-keeper at recently concluded PCB Awards 2018. While some asked if he dropped the award or not, others where shocked.
We know how Akmal brothers have always been on target of the trolls. Kamran was roasted for dropping dolly catches. His minor mistakes behind the wickets have hurt his team on many occasions.
Akmal and drop catches have been an old story. The legacy was continued by his younger brother Umar Akmal, who is currently out of Pakistan team.
After the veteran cricketer was awarded, the official account of PCB posted a tweet to congratulate Kamran. Imam-ul-Haq took the award on behalf of Kamran, as the latter wasn't present at the ceremony.
“Imam-ul-Haq receiving the award on Kamran Akmal’s behalf for the Best Wicket-keeper Award in domestic cricket. #PCBAwards #TitansGala,” the PCB tweeted.

Lol at Malan who drops Vijay now. One person can rarely have single handedly lost his team a match through fielding. Only Kamran Akmal beats him #ENGvIND
