Imad’s ambition is to leave a legacy behind in white ball cricket, much like Brendon McCullum has done for New Zealand. He stated, “My target is to see Pakistan win the World Cup 2023 and be in the top three rankings in white ball cricket.” Rashid Latif, the former Pakistani cricketer, expressed his bewilderment at Imad’s absence from the ODI team, stating, “I don’t understand why Imad Wasim is not in the ODI team. When Imad Wasim was dropped from the team, his performance was good even then. And now that he has come to the team, he has come by performing. This is unfair, the selection committee will have to think with Imad Wasim and Pakistan Cricket.”
Furthermore, Babar Azam’s exclusion of Imad Wasim from the ODI squad also raised eyebrows. It was reported that Babar did not vote in favor of Imad’s inclusion in the team. Imad deserves a chance to represent Pakistan in the ODI format, given his outstanding performances and his strong desire to contribute to the team’s success.
