#TheHowieGames | Fawad Ahmed is a wonderful man with a remarkable story. Born in Pakistan, he always dreamed of playing cricket for his country of birth. That story was never to be, with Fawad leaving his homeland fearing for his life. Arriving in Australia Fawad had his cricket dream… but precious little else. Seeking asylum, Fawad went through all manner of highs and lows, including a 10 month period where he went from playing cricket for Hoppers Crossing, a suburban team in Melbourne’s west, to playing for Australia! This is a story that defies belief. ------ Follow The Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/ Follow The Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames Find Howie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MarkHoward03/ Follow Howie on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/markhoward03/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
