Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif believes that wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan has a “good future in ODIs and Tests”.
Rizwan is playing for the Karachi Kings in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), but has only featured in two matches and has not had a proper opportunity to bat.
Despite this, Latif is still backing Rizwan to be Pakistan’s go-to wicketkeeper in ODI and Test cricket.
