Shaniera Akram, wife of cricketer Wasim Akram, may be born and bred in Australia but she is a ‘Pakistani’ at heart.
Our national bhabi vowed that she is with Pakistan all the way. Akram took to Twitter during the Pakistan vs Australia World Cup match and declared her support for the men in green when she was asked by a fan whose side she was on.
“I think we all know that answer to this question, I’m in it for the long haul, Pakistan ZINDABAD all the way sorry Dad!,” she replied.
I was born and bred an Australian but I have come to live my life for and with the people of Pakistan. Pakistan has been good to me and plays a big part of who I am today. I love Australia and always will but I am with Pakistan all the way ?? Pakistan ZINDABAD

Commenting on an earlier Twitter post, Shaniera said she did not know who she would support in the match against Pakistan and Australia, but she felt pride after seeing the Pakistan team perform and knew then and there who she was supporting.
Akram clarified that although she loves Australia and always will, but Pakistan plays a big part of who she is today hence she will be cheering for the team during the World Cup.
