[Saba Sports News] Shoaib Akhtar, the formidable former fast bowler in international cricket, recently made headlines for addressing a young lady as his ‘female version’ in a video posted on his official ‘X’ handle. He met Vinita Khilnani, an Indian-US TikToker known for her humorous content, during his visit to the USA. Fans had noticed similarities between her facial features and Shoaib’s, prompting her response on Instagram.
Shoaib acknowledged Vinita’s work as hilarious in his video but declined the notion that she resembled him as a doppelganger. In the video, they share a light-hearted interaction, with Vinita wearing an Australia cricket jersey, and Shoaib playfully introduces her as the ‘culprit’ before appreciating her content.
In other news, Shoaib Akhtar had previously praised the Indian cricket team’s performance, especially Rohit Sharma’s captaincy, after their dominant victory in the Asia Cup 2023 final, where they defeated Sri Lanka by 10 wickets, limiting them to just 50 runs. Shoaib expressed his belief that India could be a formidable force in the upcoming 2023 ODI World Cup, but he also acknowledged the strength of subcontinent teams.
