Here’s How Other Cricketers Are Praising Mohammad Abbas
Posted by RAZA RIZVI
Mohammad Abbas – the latest sensation in the town – is making the waves in the cricketing world with his accurate lengths and skilful swing bowling. For 54 wickets after ten Tests in his career, Abbas averages just 15.64, which is best for any bowler for over a hundred years.
The way Abbas bowled on Dubai and Abu Dhabi, was indeed a sight to watch because no any bowler has ever bowled better lengths and swung the ball this much on a flat batting track as Abbas did. His ten-wicket-haul at Abu Dhabi was the first by any Pakistani fast bowler since 2006 when Mohammad Asif achieved this landmark against Sri Lanka in Kandy.

He is also the only fast bowler to bag a ten-for in a Test match in UAE. Previously, Mohammad Junaid’s 8/151 against Sri Lanka (2013) was the previous best in this part of the region.
From welding, the young paceman has already climbed to the No.3 in ICC’s Test bowlers ranking. With his brilliant bowling, the 28-year-old has made fans across the worlds.
Not only Pakistan but the former cricketers from England, Australia, Indian and South Africa are all praises for Mohammad Abbas.
Here is what legendary cricketers have to say about the young sensation:
Outstanding performance by team Pakistan! Abbas is a brilliant performer in any conditions. Very well led by Sarfraz, great debut by Fakhar. Hope this great run of form continues!

Pakistan have as always unearthed a special fast bowler. Mohammad Abbas looks an unbelievably talented bowler.

One of the world’s fastest bowler Brett Lee found his counterpart Shoaib Akhter’s words ‘enough said.’ So he just retweeted Akhter’s Tweet.
