Former Pakistan captain Salman Butt has revealed that he would choose pace bowler Umar Gul to bowl in the death overs of a T20 match.
Salman’s comments came after Islamabad United asked which player people would pick to bowl the final overs of a T20 game.
Along with the question, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) franchise also provided four choices, which included Gul, India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, Australia left-arm seamer Mitchell Starc and Pakistan spinner Saeed Ajmal.
