Former Pakistan batsman Faisal Iqbal has heaped praise on England fast bowler James Anderson for his ability to dominate the opposition batsmen.
Faisal’s comments about Anderson came in response to a video from the International Cricket Council (ICC), which showed Anderson finishing with figures of 4-29 in England’s 2003 World Cup match against Pakistan.
Anderson dismissed Inzamam-ul-Haq and Mohammad Yousuf in consecutive deliveries before taking out Saeed Anwar and Rashid Latif.
Anderson’s performance with the ball earned him the Man of the Match award as England crushed Pakistan by 112 runs.
