 Will this “Pakistani” get a place in the England playing eleven in the second Test?  McCullum praised

After defeating Team India by 28 runs in the five-match Test series in Hyderabad, the English cricket team is now busy preparing for the second Test. Although the England team won the first Test, they could go into the second Test with one change. In fact, England can include Pakistan-born spinner Shoaib Bashir in the starting XI in the second Test against India.

We tell you that Pakistani-born spinner Shoaib Bashir is a British citizen. However, due to visa issues, he could not reach India before the start of the Test series. However, he has now come to India and it is believed that he can be part of the England playing XI in the second Test. Speaking to SenRadio, England Test team coach Brendon McCullum said that Shoaib Bashir fits perfectly into his group and his skills can help the team in Indian conditions.

In the first Test, played in Hyderabad, the English team fielded three spinners. However, leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed didn’t look that impressive. In the first innings, Rehan took two wickets for 105 runs in 24 overs. He didn’t get a wicket in the second innings and also scored 33 runs in 6 overs. In such a situation, young Shoaib Bashir can be part of the playing XI in his place in the second Test.

England Test team coach Brendon McCullum said: “Shoaib Bashir was part of our camp in Abu Dhabi. He has fit in well with the group. He really impressed us with his skills. He is a very enthusiastic player. His age is quite high.” “He’s small but like Tom Hartley, he can be an asset for us in Indian conditions.”
