Step back into the golden era of cricket with this unforgettable and funny moment from the 1987 Cricket World Cup. During the 10th match between England and Sri Lanka at Peshawar (October 17, 1987), England were cruising comfortably when skipper Graham Gooch handed the last over to Allan Lamb.
What followed became a cherished piece of cricket folklore. Instead of bowling normally, Allan Lamb hilariously imitated the bowling action of Pakistan’s iconic fast bowler, Imran Khan. With a mock run-up, dramatic strides, and a playful follow-through, Lamb had the crowd roaring with laughter.
Moments like these remind us that cricket is not just about fierce competition—it’s also about joy, humour, and the lighter side of the game. Relive this vintage funny moment of cricket history, where Allan Lamb brought smiles to everyone by channeling the great Imran Khan in his own comedic style.
