Wasim Akram Urges Pakistan, India Players to Forget the Hype and Enjoy the Game

Cricket legend Wasim Akram has given valuable advice to both Pakistan and India players ahead of their Asia Cup clash in Dubai, reminding them that “it’s just a game.”

The highly anticipated Group A match comes just months after military tensions between the two nations. Akram urged cricketers to ignore the hype, enjoy the contest, and stay disciplined under pressure.

He also advised the inexperienced Pakistan squad not to treat the India match as everything but instead focus on winning the entire Asia Cup. “One team will win and one team will lose. Just enjoy the moment,” Akram said, recalling how he thrived in high-pressure India-Pakistan encounters during his career.
