Imad Wasim Channels Erling Haaland with Lotus Pose Celebration After Key Wicket
LAHORE – Islamabad United’s Imad Wasim lit up the Gaddafi Stadium with yet another creative celebration, this time channeling Manchester City striker Erling Haaland during a high-octane clash against Lahore Qalandars.
After dismissing Fakhar Zaman, Imad dropped into the Norwegian footballer’s iconic ‘Lotus’ pose — sitting cross-legged with wrists resting on knees and fingers forming a meditative circle — a symbol of calm amidst the storm. The moment quickly went viral, adding to Imad’s growing reputation as the PSL’s most expressive wicket-taker.

This isn’t the first time the all-rounder has brought football flair to the cricket field. Earlier in the season, he mimicked Mohamed Salah’s arms-raised stance and Antoine Griezmann’s L-dance, drawing laughs and praise from fans alike.
In a recent interview, Imad revealed that FIFA video game sessions with teammates often spark ideas for his on-field celebrations, combining his love for football with his cricketing career.
Despite the flair, Lahore Qalandars broke United’s winning streak, securing their first big win of the season. But Imad’s tributes continue to inject fresh energy into the Pakistan Super League (PSL), keeping fans entertained match after match.
