He had made his debut for Pakistan in 2017.
India’s Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, Australia’s David Warner and Steve Smith, while England and New Zealand’s Jos Buttler and Kane Williamson, respectively, are undoubtedly some of the greatest batters across all formats that the game has seen in the modern era.
Bowling to Kohli, Rohit, Buttler, Warner, and Williamson is certainly a dream of many youngsters. They have been ruling world cricket for a long time with their charisma and classy batting in all three formats of the game. However, when it comes to playing spin, there is no match of Indians across the globe.
Recently, Pakistan spinner Shadab Khan was asked about the toughest batters to bowl at during a Q&A session with the fans on Twitter, and he picked only one Indian batter between two modern-day legends like Kohli and Rohit.
Well, both Rohit and Warner are undoubtedly among the best batters in the world and have produced a number of match-winning performances for India over the years, and with many expecting the Indian Test skipper’s name, the Pakistan all-rounder went with the white-ball skipper.
Shadab picked Australia’s explosive batter Warner, along with Rohit, as the most difficult batters to bowl to. Warner is also a nightmare for many bowlers, and especially on his day, he is a beast with the bat. He has been a pillar of Australia’s batting unit over the years.
The all-rounder also named Butter as his favorite England cricketer.
The all-rounder also named his Pakistan captain Babar Azam as world's number one player. He also picked 217 ICC Champions Trophy final against India as his favorite match so far.
Notably, Shadab has so far played 6 Tests, 48 ODIs, and 64 T20Is for Pakistan, picking up 14, 62, and 73 wickets respectively at the highest level.
