Abdullah Shafiq has become a wave in Pakistani cricket in a very short period of time. The player who played consistently for the Pakistan Test team is once again the talk of the cricket world. The star, who had a stellar performance in the Test series against Australia earlier this year, has been included in the upcoming ODI series against the West Indies.
The 22-year-old, who scored a century in his Test debut against Australia, later went on to score two half-centuries in the series. Pakistan captain Babur Assam is now praising the player who got his first chance in the ODI team.
Babur Assam is comparing Abdullah Shafiq, who scored a century against a strong Australian bowling rate, with Indian legend Rahul Dravid and New Zealand star Williamson.
I have already seen Abdullah’s stylish batting many times. He gives us so much excitement and so much hope. He has a great stance. The balls face everything very well. He is often compared to Williamson and Rahul Dravid. We call him Dravid. Babur Assam became vocal.
Pakistan will face Shaun Masood for the opening position. However, Babur said Abdul Shafiq was giving the team more balance. Pakistan will play three ODIs against the West Indies.
