The HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala is located in the picturesque Himalayan backdrop and is considered by many as one of the most beautiful cricket stadiums in the world. When the matches are scheduled at this stadium, cricketers from different parts of the world who come to play there, are amazed by the the serene view of the majestic Himalayas.

Recently, the stadium hosted the last match of the India-England series from March 7 to March 9. The game ended in three days as India won it by an innings and 64 runs.

Pakistan fans also want cricket matches to be played at a stadium like Dharamshala or Queenstown in New Zealand. So one fan asked Pakistani legend Wasim Akram why Pakistan doesn’t have such stadiums in the northern part of the country surrounded by beautiful mountains.

Akram here took a sly dig at the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). He said Pakistan can only dream of making a new stadium as they are failing to even maintain the three stadiums they have.

We can't even maintain three stadiums, how could we make a new one? Have you seen the roof of the Gaddafi Stadium that they were showing with the drone? We can't even control the three we have. We can only dream of making a new one. We have enough area to make a new stadium, though. Abbottabad is very beautiful.

The franchise offered Miller a sum of $150,000 (Rs 1.24 crore) to feature in the last three matches and so the South African batter eventually postponed his wedding. Wasim Akram revealed the same recently.
