The World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2025 tournament has started from Friday, 18 July. The first match of this tournament was played between Pakistan Champions and England Champions. This match was won by Pakistan Champions by five runs. Pakistan Champions batted and bowled very well in this match, but they became a big joke in fielding. In fact, the team’s wicketkeeper batsman Kamran Akmal left a very easy stumping in this match, due to which the English legend Phil Mustard got a big life.
Jokes made by Kamran Akmal
In the sixth over of England Champions innings, Phil Mustard tried to play a big shot on the first ball of Shoaib Malik, but he missed. The ball went to wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal, who missed the stumping. This gave the English player a big life and played a half -century for his team. However, Mustard failed to win his team. Talking about the Pakistan team, their fielding has always been a joke and the same was seen in the first match of this tournament.
