Wasim Akram Horoscope

About Wasim Akram

Pakistani cricketer Wasim Akram is widely regarded one of the greatest bowlers of all time. Akram is known for his left-handed fast and swing bowling. He is also known for captaining the Pakistan cricket team, taking them to the 1999 World Cup final.

Akram came into prominence after former Pakistan captain Javed Miandad noticed his skills with the ball and picked him for the Pakistani national squad. Akram could produce late swing with both new and old balls. His yorkers and bouncers were also lethal to batsmen, generating terror in them. Akram gained the name the “Sultan of Swing” for his inimitable style of bowling.

A most memorable performance came in the 1992 ICC Cricket World Cup. Akram took two wickets in consecutive balls, helping cinch the trophy, and earning the Man of the Match award for his all-round contributions.

After retiring from international cricket in 2003, Akram took up coaching and commentary roles.

Akram is twice married. His first wife passed away in 2009 due to health complications. He remarried in 2013. He has three children.  

Overall Planetary Placements in Wasim Akram’s Horoscope

Taurus Rising and Scorpio Moon sign give Akram a stable and strong personality. Moon with Ketu indicates an out-of-the-box approach and strategy, netting him success. Jupiter in the 2nd house gives a strong personality and the ability to express his ideas, and also provides a career as a commentator and a coach.

Moon with Ketu causes an eclipse in his horoscope, and a negative result of that was his first wife, Huma, passed away due to multiple organ failure. The influence of Rahu-Mars was present too (causing Angarak Yoga in his horoscope).

The conjunction of Mars and Rahu also brought about two surgeries, before he re-emerged as a fast bowler focused on swing and precision bowling. He overcame those health challenges with the support of Jupiter and Venus, which together give Shubha-Kartari Yoga to his lagna.

Major Planets and Positive Yogas for Akram’s Success

• Sumukha Yoga: Mercury is the 2nd lord from the ascendant, giving Sumukha Yoga in the horoscope. The second house stands for face and speech and Mercury’s placement gives an attractive look and fame.
• Shubha-Kartari Yoga: Jupiter and Venus give Shubha-Kartari Yoga in Akram’s horoscope, with their respective placements adjacent to his ascendant. This has given him an attractive personality. It also makes him eloquent, blessed with a good lifestyle, and a handsome appearance with wealth and fame.
• Viparita Harsha Raja Yoga: The placement of Venus gives Viparita Harsha Raja Yoga and gives the ability to fight and overcome challenges. This Venus has given Akram the ability to make right decisions even in challenging situations.
• Surya-Budha Yoga: Sun and Mercury in conjunction give Budh-Aditya Yoga in his horoscope. This has given Akram eloquence, self-control, and a down-to-earth approach.

The Planetary Combinations Akram Should Guard Against

• Moon-Ketu Eclipse: These two planets cause affliction in his 7th house of marriage and brought about health-related challenges to his first spouse.
• Angarak Yoga: Mars with Rahu in his horoscope gives challenges to his spouse’s health and indicates surgery for him. Mars and Rahu both have a heavy energy, and are placed in the ascendant. So, they give challenges that are not easy to face.
• Kemadruma Yoga: There is no planet in the 12th and 2nd from the Moon, or with it, causing Kemadruma Yoga in his horoscope. This also indicates separation and emotional instability in life.

Predictions

• Well-placed Jupiter and its influence on the 10th house indicate success in running a sports academy or other related business.
• From October 2025 to February 2028, Saturn's transit over natal Saturn will ensure that Akram will build new projects related to his businesses.
