Waqar Younis makes big admission about his bowling rivalry with Wasim Akram

Both boast of career numbers that will be hard to match for any budding fast bowler.

New Delhi: Waqar Younis and Wasim Akram will go down in cricket history as two of the greatest fast bowlers to have ever played the game.

But there was and continues to be a debate over who between the two was the better bowler.

Both have a strong fan following and boast of career numbers that will be hard to match for any budding fast bowler.

Cricket Australia has been running an online poll called ODI GOAT, pitting two players against one another. 

In one match up, Wasim and Waqar came up against each other. Interestingly, Waqar received more votes from the online audience.

After the result, Waqar thanked the fans for their votes but also went on to add that Wasim was in fact the better bowler between the two.

Appreciate all the votes for me but in my eyes there is no match @wasimakramlive was far better bowler than me. #ODIGOAT #respect — waqar younis (@waqyounis99) May 5, 2016
