- Mushtaq Ahmed feels Ihsanullah is fit for international cricket.
- Pacer doesn’t require much domestic cricket experience before moving on to international cricket.
- Mushtaq thinks a successful pacer may be attributed to a strong skipper.
Ihsanullah, a youthful pacer, is ready for the Pakistan team, according to Multan Sultans bowling coach Mushtaq Ahmed.
A pacer doesn’t require much domestic cricket experience before moving on to international cricket, according to Mushtaq, who was speaking to the media after Sultans’ final Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 8 match on Sunday in Karachi.
The former Test cricketer said, “I don’t think it would be early to include Ihsanullah in the Pakistan team.” “Before playing international cricket, a fast bowler doesn’t require a lot of experience in domestic cricket. Waqar Younis and Wasim Akram are two instances of players who didn’t play a lot of domestic cricket before making their international debut. And they succeeded ” he added.
Mushtaq used the example of how a spinner and batsman need to play more domestic cricket to further illustrate his thesis. “It is more crucial for a spinner or even a batsman to play domestic cricket than it is for a pacer because it takes skill to get five wickets and score 100. A spinner must work much harder than a pacer to take five wickets. First-class cricket is played session by session, giving you time to develop your skills “He said.
Mushtaq thinks a successful pacer may be attributed to a strong skipper. “A pacer doesn’t require a lot of expertise. He just needs a strong captain who plays him to his strength and cares about his conditioning “Finally, he said.
Ihsanullah now holds the record for most wickets in PSL 8 with 14 wickets. The 20-year-old bowler’s speed dazzled the PSL spectators.
