KARACHI:Just yesterday Umar Akmal was suspended by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) under its anti-corruption laws, hours before he was set to play the opening match of PSL with Quetta Gladiators.
Surprisingly the possible end of Akmal's decade-long career was overshadowed by a mere typo. Earlier in the week the cricketer had posted a photo of himself with colleague Abdul Razzaq with the caption "Mother from an another brother".
While it's most likely a honest mistake by the batsman (some might still have doubts and we shouldn't blame them) the internet neither forgives or forgets.
Hoards of memes around Akmal's typo (once again there is a possibility it was intentional, its Umar Akmal we are talking about) have flooded social media since then. Yup the disgraced cricketer has become an internet darling.
