Pakistan pace bowler Naseem Shah has revealed that he should “resume bowling in a couple of days” after suffering an injury during the first Test against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi.

Naseem played down the severity of the injury, saying that he “pulled a muscle”.

The 16-year-old made history during the first Test, which Pakistan won by an innings and 44 runs, as he became the youngest player to take a hat-trick in Test history.

Naseem accomplished the record-breaking feat on the third day after dismissing Najmul Hossain Shanto, Taijul Islam and Mahmudullah in consecutive deliveries.
