Former Pakistan wicketkeeper-batsman Rashid Latif has been impressed with batsman Abdullah Shafique so far, but admitted that the 20-year-old still has a long way to go.

Latif’s comments come in the midst of the National T20 Cup, where Shafique is playing for Central Punjab.

The Sialkot native started the tournament with a bang as he smashed an unbeaten 102 on debut against Southern Punjab and has followed it up with decent scores.

Overall, Shafique is the highest run-scorer in the National T20 Cup with 236 runs in five matches, which includes a century and fifty, at an average of 59 and a strike-rate of 136.41.

“Abdullah Shafique playing well… long way to go,” Latif said on Twitter.
