In his first TikTok video, the world’s fastest bowler was seen sitting on a heavy bike with a helmet in his hands. “Like you need to wear a helmet before riding a motorcycle and face my bowling, you also need to slow down, and think before uploading anything on the internet to see if it is causing any harm to anyone,” he said in the video.
The pacer advised netizens to always be mindful before uploading content on the internet and take care of themselves. The video closes with the ex-cricketer wearing the helmet, kickstarting the motorcycle and riding away.
Within the first few hours of its creation, Shoaib Akhtar’s TikTok account attracted over 22,000 followers. However, he himself hasn’t followed anyone back.
