Pakistanis 61/3 (13 ov)
well knowing and wathcing him play personally, he is a big fan of Mark Waugh and we used tp play with tape ball and his stance was very much like Mark Waugh.. Dont know about now though, coz it was some years back.
well it seems the wickets has slowed him down, that seems to be a good batsman, taking over the situation!!!!
