Trolls were soon raining cats and dogs on Twitter that forced Akmal to reply to the negative comments and the Pakistani batsman insisted his fans to put an end to the negative remarks.
I Love all my fans. A humble request to all fans please refrain from negative comments. Your prayers and support is always appreciated

However, if Umar felt the tweet would calm his critics, he was completely mistaken. More and more insults and teasing remarks poured in for the Pakistani cricketer, with few of his fans stating the criticism was constructive.
if someone tells u truth, u block them. how can u love your Fans if u cant bear criticism .

Since his arrival in Pakistan cricket, Umar Akmal was hailed as one of the country’s brightest talents. However, he failed to live to the hype with injuries and bad form playing a major part in his downfall. Umar was also recently selected to represent Pakistan in the ICC Champions Trophy but failed multiple fitness tests that hindered his selection and he was sent back to Pakistan from England.
Things continued to get bitter for him as he was also omitted from the Pakistan Cricket Board’s list of players eligible for getting national contracts. It was also reported that Pakistan Cricket Board may probe him and Mohammad Sami in connection with spot-fixing.
