Pakistan speedster Naseem Shah said his confidence has gone up thanks to the support he received from West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Bravo during the recent edition of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL).
Naseem played alongside Bravo, who captained the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots to their maiden CPL title.
The 18-year-old took six wickets in seven games at an average of 32 and an economy rate of 7.68.
The Champions! Alhamdulillah.
