Shoaib Akhtar knocked another record out of the park.
Shoaib Akhtar aka the Rawalpindi Express rightly earned that nickname after he gained his place in cricket history after being recognized as the fastest bowler the game had ever seen. And his exceptional bowling skills are just one of the few things which make him a beloved sportsman.
Shoaib Akhtar is known for his savage comments and unfiltered opinions
He was personally asked by the chairman of PTV to continue his role as a panelist on PTV Sports till the World Cup concludes because he is honestly just THAT popular. The 43-year old former Pakistani cricketer is considered an expert on cricket and hence is often seen as a panelist on shows discussing the game.
On the request of Chairman PTV and immense public pressure, i will be rejoining PTV Sports and fulfill my World Cup commitment.
Honoring the request from Chairman sahab, i have pushed my family commitments to post-World Cup InshAllah. #CWC19

Recognizing how popular his opinions and views on the game are, Shoaib Akhtar launched his YouTube channel right before the 2019 Cricket World Cup
His videos criticizing Pakistan’s team and captain Sarfaraz Ahmed became viral on both sides of the border
Since then he has been consistently posting match analysis videos and even has videos where he brings in special guests to discuss things with him. His video where he analyses the disastrous Pakistan vs India match has over 9 million views.
So it should be no surprise that his YouTube is the fastest growing YouTube channel in Pakistan
It is being said that he even broke Pewdiepie’s record for the fastest growing channel in one month. Shoaib Akhtar got 1 million subscribers in less than four months; and he started posting regularly just a month ago!
The man is known for speed. On and off the field. Big hug 🤗 and congrats on reaching 1 Million subscribers on @YouTube in double quick time. More power to you, @shoaib100mph 👍👏
