Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Ramiz Raja lauded the Pakistan Test opener Abdullah Shafique as the young cricketer hit a gritty 160 to lead Pakistan to victory against Sri Lanka in the opening Test in Galle.
Raja took to Twitter and congratulated Babar Azam-led team Pakistan for winning the first Test of the two-match series.
He said, “This team Pakistan had to overcome a statistical Everest to prove the world wrong at Galle and they did!! Great run chase.”
While praising Abdullah, he said, “Pakistan may have found the next batting superstar in Abdullah Shafique. So calm and organised and classy.”
