Shocking statement of Shan Masood, this 24 year old Pakistani player is better than Virat Kohli
The 3-match Test series between Pakistan and England is going to start in Multan from 7th October. Shan Masood (Photo Source: Getty Images) There is a lot of turmoil in Pakistan cricket at the moment. Recently, they had lost in the Test series against Bangladesh, after which questions were raised on Shan Masood’s Test captaincy. Meanwhile, Pakistan Test team captain Shan Masood has given such a statement which has made him the target of many people. Pakistan cricket team is ready to play test series against England at home. This 3-match test series will start from October 7 in Multan. Meanwhile, Pakistan Test team captain Shan Masood has given a big statement which many people are not liking. Actually, Shan Masood has spoken too much in praise of Pakistan’s opening batsman Abdullah Shafiq. He has described this 24 year old batsman as better than Virat Kohli. Shan Masood, in response to a question citing the comparison of statistics between Virat Kohli and Abdullah Shafiq, said that the Pakistan opener’s statistics in Test cricket are better than the star Indian batsman’s initial years. Pakistan Test team has been announced for the first Test of the series against England. Masood has been retained as the captain of the team while fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi has returned to the team. Shaheen Afridi gave strange statement regarding Virat Kohli Shaheen did not get a place in the second and final Test against Bangladesh. Quoting Sportskeeda, journalists asked Shan Masood whether it is Abdullah Shafiq or Sam Ayub, the same type of players are playing T20 and Test. In response to this, the captain replied that he does not think your question is correct… He agrees that Pakistan has not played good cricket in 2024 but it is wrong to mix and compare Test performance with T20. He further said that things should be looked at objectively. You talk about statistics. The other day he kept looking at the record that Abdullah Shafiq, who has played 19 Tests, has a better record than Virat Kohli. There is no doubt that Shafiq’s figures in the first 19 Test matches may be better than Kohli’s, but this statement of Shan Masood has started a new kind of debate. Let us tell you that in the first 19 Test matches, Virat Kohli had scored 1178 runs in 32 innings at an average of 40.62, whereas Shafiq had scored 1372 runs in 36 innings of 19 matches at an average of 40.35.
