The Australia vs Pakistan 1st ODI has been marked with a major controversy. The Pakistan Cricket Team was bowled out for 203 runs. And after Kamran Ghulam’s dismissal, a vile remark from commentator Kerry O Keefe drew major backlash on social media. The commentator’s demark was derogatory when he claimed that the pitch they were playing was not Multan.
There was sky-high expectation from Kamram Ghulam who recently slammed a great century against England at home. The right-handed batter was dismissed for 5 runs from 6 deliveries. He failed to judge the pace and bounce of the MCG pitch and was dismissed from a sharp bounce by Australia Cricket Team skipper Pat Cummins.
Australia commentator slammed for distasteful comments
After Kamran Ghulam was dismissed, Kerry O Keefe went on to troll the Pakistani batter. “This is not Multan Pitch Baby, it is MCG,” said Kerry O Keefe.
This comment however didn’t go well with the fans. They slammed the commentator claiming his comments have been distasteful. On the other hand, Wasim Akram and Michael Vaughan too find themselves in a tight spot.
The duo have been slammed for disclosing personal and family details of the player. And these remarks too didn’t sit well with the fans. “Kamran Ghulam, comes from a big family, he is the 11th of 12 brothers and 4 sisters. Yup,” said Wasim Akram.
To this Michael Vaughan replied, “16 Kids. Wow! What’s the age gap, that’s of interest.”
