PAK vs ENG: Leg Spinner Abrar Ahmed best bowling record in Multan Test and other big stats | Abrar Ahmed: The new ‘Sultan’ of Multan… did a shocking feat after 72 years
Pakistani leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed wreaked havoc in the Multan Test while making his debut against England and stopped England’s destructive batting for a small score.
The Pakistani team, which was thrashed by the English batsmen in the Rawalpindi Test, did not allow this to happen in the Multan Test and restricted England to just 281 runs. The reason for this was 24-year-old leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed, who took 7 wickets on the very first day of his Test debut. (TV9 Graphics)
Although veteran Indian batsman Virender Sehwag has a special identity as the Sultan of Multan, but now Pakistan has also got its own Sultan of Multan. Abrar’s performance is the best bowling in Tests at this ground. (TV9 Graphics)
Apart from this, Abrar became the third bowler for Pakistan to take 7 wickets in the first innings of Test debut. (TV9 Graphics)
Abrar took 5 wickets in the very first session of the match in his Test debut and he became not only the first Pakistani but also the first Asian bowler to do so. (TV9 Graphics)
Not only this, he became only the fourth bowler to do so in the first session of Test debut. The last time 72 years ago in 1950, Elf Valentine of West Indies did this feat in England. (TV9 Graphics)
