Wasim Akram aka "sultan of swing" is considered one of the greatest fast bowlers in the history of cricket. He made eye-catching revelations in his book.
In the book, he talked at length about a number of topics including his strained relationship with former Pakistan captain and middle-order batter Saleem Malik. The former ace seamer has accused Saleem Malik of being one of the most untrustworthy men.
He revealed that Saleem Malik had ordered him to clean his clothes and shoes on the first tour.
"Considering me his slave, Saleem Malik wanted me to massage him", Akram added.
Taking a dig at PCB chairman Rameez Hassan Raja, Wasim Akram revealed that Rameez Raja was less likely to take catches and drop more at the slip position.

"Javed Miandad gave me batting pads on the first tour", Wasim Akram added.
