‘Kamran Ghulam Has 11 Brothers, 4 Sisters’ Wasim Akram, Michael Vaughan and Adam Gilchrist Involved in Unconventional Conversation in Commentary Box During AUS vs PAK 1st ODI 2024
Kamran Ghulam found himself in the thick of things, with commentators making unsavoury remarks about his family during AUS vs PAK 1st ODI 2024. Commentators included Wasim Akram, Michael Vaughan and Adam Gilchrist.
Cricket commentary these days are becoming more of social media sound bytes than actually explaining the art of cricket. During AUS vs PAK 1st ODI 2024, an unsavory incident took place on-air which included former internationals like Wasim Akram, Michael Vaughan, and Adam Gilchrist, where all the commentators talked about Kamran Ghulam's family, that left a bad taste in the mouth of the listeners.

Akram brought up the matter of Ghulam's family, which consists of 11 brothers and four sisters, following which fellow commentators Vaughan and Gilchrist also made personal remarks about the player's household. As quoted by Hindustan Times, the conversation included the age gap and the Pakistan selection committee.
Wasim Akram: 'Kamran Ghulam, comes from a big family, he is the 11th of 12 brothers and 4 sisters. Yup.'
Michael Vaughan: '16 Kids. Wow! What's the age gap, that's of interest.'
Adam Gilchrist: 'Pakistan selection committee'
Meanwhile, Ghulam had a not-so-promising start in the AUS vs PAK ODI Series 2024, getting out for five in the first match at MCG. In contrast, Ghulam made international headlines last month for his remarkable Test series against England, where the batter replaced Babar Azam in the second Test, and slammed a century on debut.
The 29-year-old will be in action for Pakistan during AUS vs PAK 2nd ODI on November 8 at Adelaide.
