Pakistan bowling coach Waqar Younis has revealed that legendary leg-spinner Mushtaq Ahmed wanted to be a singer, but “wasn’t very good”.

Waqar noted that Mushtaq tried and worked really hard at singing, but it just didn’t work out.

Instead, Mushtaq went on to become one of Pakistan’s most respected spinners as he claimed 185 wickets in 52 Tests at an average of 32.97 and 161 wickets in 144 ODIs at an average of 33.29.
