Is Naseem Shah a backup bowler? Former Pakistani player surprised with his statement

20-year-old gun bowler Naseem Shah has earned a big name in the world on the basis of his talent at a very young age. Today, Naseem is considered one of the best bowlers in Pakistan at present, which is why this right-arm bowler has also found a place in the Pakistan team for the Asia Cup 2023 tournament starting on 30 August. However, despite all this, former Pakistan player Aaqib Javed believes that Naseem is just a backup bowler and there is another better bowler than him who was not selected in the Pakistan team for the Asia Cup.

Yes, Aaqib Javed has given a surprising statement. According to him, 21-year-old Zaman Khan is a better bowler than Naseem Shah. Zaman is known as the Malinga of Pakistan and is known for his accurate yorkers at the death. Please tell that Zaman has not been made a part of Pakistan's Asia Cup squad, but despite this, according to Aaqib Javed, Zaman is 10 times better than Naseem Shah in white ball cricket.

Aaqib Javed has called Zaman Khan the best death bowler in the world. He said, 'No one has the skills that Zaman Khan has. Even now we have come from playing in Canada, according to me there is no better bowler than Zaman in the death overs. I rate Zaman Khan more than Naseem Shah in white ball cricket. So your three bowlers are Shaheen, Haris and Zaman. This should be your bowler. After this Naseem Shah comes.

Please tell that Zaman Khan has performed very well in the past. This right-arm bowler has also made his international debut and has taken 4 wickets in 6 T20 matches so far. However, he could not impress much on the big stage due to which he was not included in Pakistan's Asia Cup squad.
