A young Pakistan bowling sensation seems to be the country’s answer to finding a Jasprit Bumrah in the future. While the Men in Green have seen young pacers come to the fore constantly, this young pacer left a mark in the nets, having almost a similar action compared to the premium Indian pacer. The likes of Shaheen Afridi and Naseem Shah will eventually have to pave way for more younger pacers in the future and this young pacer is just one amongst those who have immense talent to deliver with the ball in the country.
