Akram was quick to notice the oddity in the uniform and expressed his resentment on social media. “Where is the green stripe gone from our sweater? Not cool,” Akram said on social media.

A day later, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) came out thanking the legendary bowler and said they will look into the matter 'seriously'. The board wrote in response, “Thank you Wasim Akram for pointing this out. We are going to seriously inquire into the matter.”

Akram has then stated that he is ‘all for modernising our uniform’ but was one of the view that one should inform them before making any changes.

Meanwhile, Pakistan is currently in the midst of a historic Test against Ireland. After a frustrating rain-delay that washed out the opening day's play, Pakistan looks to seal the day with two days remaining.
