Legendary Pakistan cricketer Wasim Akram is currently in Australia for his commentary stint for the ongoing two-match Test series between Australia and Pakistan.

On the occasion of Day-Night Test – second and final Test of the series at Adelaide Oval, Wasim has a special present for his fellow commentator, Brett Lee, former Australia fast bowler.

The two pace bowling greats have terrorized the batsmen across the globe and made it really tough for them to steal the runs when they were on the top of the game.

On Friday, November, 29 in Adelaide, Akram gifted Lee a special cricket ball that was actually a specially designed perfume in the shape of a red cricket ball.

The perfume was designed to honor the legendary Pakistan fast-bowlers achievement in the traditional format of the game. The specially made ball had Akram's name and his Test wickets-tally inscribed around the seam in golden color.

Meanwhile, Lee took to Twitter to share a video featuring the two greats of the pace to thank "the Sultan of Swing" for his gesture and cheekily asked: "Was this your secret to so many wickets?"

Have a look here:

Noteworthy, Akram is considered one of the most successful fast bowlers to have played the game, finished his international career with 414 Test wickets and 502 ODI wickets in 50-overs cricket in his illustrious career spanning 15 years.

On the other hand, Lee also had an exceptional international career, finishing with over 700 wickets across formats - 310 wickets in Tests and 380 and 28 wickets scalps in ODIs and T20Is respectively.
