Waqar reveals Sidhu getting teased about golden duck on Kapil Sharma show

Waqar reveals Sidhu getting teased about golden duck on Kapil Sharma show

New Delhi, Jun 12 (UNI) Pakistan’s bowling legend Waqar Younis loved watching Navjot Singh Sidhu at the Kapil Sharma Show especially when Kapil Sharma took a dig on the famous Golden Duck moment during India and Pakistan clash back in 1990.
It was Wasim Akram who made the revelations during his guest appearance at the show that left Sidhu in trouble and gave Kapil Sharma new jibe to take a dig on Navjot Singh Sidhu since then. In a freewheeling chat at GloFans twitter platform during ‘Q20’, Waqar Younis revealed how much he enjoyed watching Sidhu Paaji being teased on the show.
“I have seen that Kapil Sharma Show, few times and I know my name has been mentioned several times regarding Sidhu paaji when I got him out in 1990. And, I got him on a very very first ball. I know he has been teased a lot because of that. And, it was a wonderful game of Cricket. We always used to enjoy playing against India in those days because we used to win against India a lot those days. Not nowadays, though.” Waqar confessed to a fan’s question on GloFans.
“But yes, Sidhu paaji has always been a great friend and a good mentor also. He is a lovely human being and I’ve done a lot of shows with him and Cricket shows also," he further added.
Not only Indian stars, but international athletes have also appeared in the show as special guests. One particular episode that featured former Pakistan skipper Wasim Akram made some funny yet serious revelation left his former teammate Waqar Younis absolutely smitten.
During the ‘Q20’ session, Waqar Younis further revealed Bollywood Actress Kajol as his favorite actress and legendary Bollywood actor Amitabh Bacchan as the best actor, in yet another question by a fan.
Waqar Younis is the second cricketing legend who spoke to fans on the official Twitter platform @GloFansOfficial after David Gower. David Gower interacted with fans at length and touched upon many interesting topics including Saurav Ganguly’s role as BCCI president, R Ashwin’s mankading
incidentand Kolkata Knight Riders’ co-owner Shahrukh Khan.
