Shakib is very clever bowler, says Saqlain

Saqlain Mushtaq, who invented the ‘doosra’, deceived many batsmen with his variations.

The former cricketer believes that Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan is a clever bowler.

He said, “Shakib-Al-Hasan is a very clever bowler as well because I have seen him closely while working with Bangladesh.”

The former cricketer believes that Nathan Lyon is currently the world’s best spinner as he is an all-conditions bowler, whereas Ashwin is more effective in home conditions. He also praised Kuldeep Yadav as he finds him to be a thinking bowler.

He also said, “In the longer version, I think Nathon Lyon is the best spinner in the world as he has performed against the majority of the top sides including India and Pakistan.”

“Ashwin is also a good bowler but in home conditions. In limited-overs cricket, Kuldeep Yadav is a really good spinner and he is well educated in a cricket sense,” he added.

While talking about Pakistan cricket, he singled out key spinners – Shadab Khan and Yasir Shah.

In Pakistan, Shadab has a lot of potential and I think he can also be effective in Test cricket as well. Yasir Shah is a world-class spinner as well which is evident from his track record,” Mushtaq concluded.
