Legendary Pakistan left-arm seamer Wasim Akram said spin-bowling all-rounder Mohammad Nawaz is a “very clever bowler”.
Nawaz has been cementing his spot in the team across all three formats with strong performances.
While he mostly contributes with the ball, he has also shown that he can be a handy batsman as he has plenty of big shots in his arsenal.
“He is a very clever bowler, Nawaz,” Wasim said on Star Sports as quoted by Cricket Pakistan.
In the recent three-Test series against England, which Pakistan lost 3-0, Nawaz was picked for one game, where he made 46 runs and took one wicket.
