Iconic Pakistan fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar heaped praise on legendary West Indies seamer Sir Curtly Ambrose, saying he was “one giant of a man, one giant of a bowler”.

Ambrose took 405 wickets in 98 Tests at an average of 20.99 and 225 wickets in 176 ODIs at an average of 24.12.

With Ambrose being one of the most feared bowlers of his time, Akhtar said he was lucky to have played against the Antigua native.
