Gavaskar made a big statement about Pakistani bowlers, said- they have the most lethal new ball attack in the game.

 

Former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has praised Pakistan's current fast bowling line-up, calling them the best new ball attack in the game at present. Pakistani fast bowlers Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah are currently showing their strength by bowling brilliantly in the Asia Cup 2023. These three bowlers had taken all 10 wickets against India and 9 wickets against Bangladesh. 

Gavaskar said, "At one time Australia and Pakistan probably shared the No. 1 and No. 2 spots because Pakistan have always had top-class new ball bowlers. But this time, they have the most lethal new ball attack in the game." He has a left-hand, right-hand combination. He can swing the ball both ways at a good pace. So, it is not easy for any batsman to be aggressive against him right from the start." 

Let us tell you that on September 10, R.K. of Colombo, Sri Lanka. All set to face Pakistan in the Super-4 of the ongoing Asia Cup 2023 at Premadasa Stadium. Now it will be interesting to see whether Pakistani fast bowlers will be able to repeat their performance against India or this time the Indian batsmen will have the upper hand.
