Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif has called legendary fast bowler Waqar Younis “the great”.
Latif’s comments came in response to a video posted on Twitter of Waqar, who is Pakistan’s bowling coach, taking out former South Africa batsman Gary Kirsten’s middle stump with a peach of a delivery during the Mandela Trophy in 1994.
However, South Africa ended up winning the match by seven wickets.
In fact, there were two finals in the tournament, which saw the Proteas go up against Pakistan in both matches.
South Africa won the first final in Cape Town by 37 runs and the second final in Johannesburg by 157 runs.
Nonetheless, Latif was so impressed with Waqar’s magical delivery to dismiss Kirsten for nine runs in the fifth match of the competition.
@waqyounis99 the great 👍
