Just seven months after his debut and in just six Test appearances, the Pakistani batsman made history by becoming the first home country cricketer to score a double 100 in five days in Sri Lanka. Shaquille’s batting average climbed to a staggering 98.5, making him the best player since Don Bradman to hit more than 10 times in Test cricket.
He has never played in an official T20 match and has scored only 67 runs in five ODI appearances.
But Saud Shaq, 27, looks like a Test cricket champion. Even the legendary Eunice Khan was shocked by Shaquille’s talent. From his good swing to his use of the tail, I thoroughly enjoyed Saud Shakir’s innings, which he hit brilliantly under pressure. “A great future awaits,” Eunice wrote on social media.
