IND vs PAK: Why Pakistan media & fans think Nawaz is a better all-rounder than Pandya
- Pakistan think Nawaz is not restricted to one format like the India all-rounder. For the unreserved, the Pakistan all-rounder plays all three formats.
- PAK fans think, Nawaz is also flexible and can bat in any position in the shortest format.
- Nawaz has batted as a pinch hitter, as a finisher, and in the middle-order position for the team in T20is in 2022.
- Pandya has batted only in one role for India in the T20Is – as a finisher for India.
- Pakistan all-rounder’s adaptability in any given situation makes the fans he is better.
- In the T20Is in 2022, Nawaz scored 202 runs at a strike rate of 136 and picked up 22 wickets.
- The southpaw has emerged as the bankable all-rounder for the team in the shortest format of the game.
India’s Asia Cup 2022 campaign was cut short by Nawaz’s blazing cameo of 40-odd runs in the Super 4 stage. Nawaz walked in at the crucial number four role and started attacking from word go. Not only with the bat, but the all-rounder can also chip with vital overs in the middle overs. The southpaw has been used in different roles for Pakistan as a pinch hitter, as a finisher, and in the middle order. The 28-year-old’s ability to go bang from the word go can make him a dangerous player.
