Former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar teased Kamran Akmal for dropping catches behind the stumps. He was having a conversation with Akmal and Mohammad Yousuf about his bowling when he brought up the topic.

All three of them are currently playing Legends League Cricket (LLC) in Oman for Asia Lions. The team features players from Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Afghanistan, and they are led by Misbah-ul-Haq.

Yousuf was praising Akhtar for completing his bowling quota in the match despite suffering from a bad knee. He was surprised to see him bowling better than expected.

Akmal jokingly added that the speedster bowled better than he used to as a youngster. Akhtar then took a jibe at the ex-Pakistan wicket-keeper and said that he got reminded of the match against New Zealand when Akmal dropped a catch in LLC.

The 40-year-old had dropped an easy catch during the first match of the tournament between India Maharajas and Asia Lions. It was the second over of India Maharajas' run-chase when Nuwan Kulasekara managed to find the outside edge of Naman Ojha. 

But unfortunately, Kulasekara couldn't get a wicket as Akmal dropped a sitter behind the stumps. Akmal is often roasted for his poor glovework and he reminded fans of the old days.
