Basil Mohammad Ramzan Akram (born 23 February 1993) is an English former first-class cricketer.

Akram was born at Waltham Forest in February 1993. He was educated at Brentwood School, before matriculating to Loughborough University.[1] Having represented Essex at youth level, Akram made his debut in first-class cricket for Loughborough MCCU against Sussex at Hove in 2014, with him claiming the wicket of England Test cricketer Matt Prior.[2] He made his second first-class appearance for Loughborough the following season, against Hampshire.[3] In September 2014, Akram signed a development contract with Hampshire for the 2015 season.[4] He would make one senior appearance for Hampshire, playing in a List A one-day match against Yorkshire at the Rose Bowl in the 2014 Royal London One-Day Cup.[5] In this match, he was dismissed for a single run by Adil Rashid and bowled two wicketless overs, conceding 24 runs.[6] At the end of the 2015 season, Akram was one of three players (the others being Joe Gatting and Tom Barber) who were released by Hampshire as their contracts had expired.[7]

Following his release by Hampshire, he continued to play for Loughborough MCCU, having a successful season in 2016. Against Surrey, he recorded his maiden first-class century with a score of 160,[8] and followed this up with an unbeaten 100 against Kent, sharing in a 130 runs partnership for the 8th wicket with Sam Grant (52).[9] He played his final season of first-class cricket for Loughborough in 2017, making two appearances against Leicestershire and Northamptonshire,[3] taking his career best bowling figures of 5 for 54 against Leicestershire.[10] In six first-class matches, Akram scored 348 runs at an average of exactly 58.[11] With the ball, he took 17 wickets at a bowling average of 34.82.[12] As of 2019, Akram was playing club cricket for Potterne Cricket Club in Wiltshire.[13]
