Fawad, Shaheen And Hasan Named In The ICC’s Test Team Of The Year
ICC’s Test Team of the Year 2021 includes three Pakistanis i.e. Shaheen Afridi, Fawad Alam and Hasan Ali. While explaining the decision to include Fawad ICC issued a press release that said, “At the age of 36, Fawad Alam has finally established himself as a cornerstone of the Pakistan batting lineup in Test cricket after years of toling on the domestic circuit.”
The game’s governing body on the other hand also explained Hasan Ali’s inclusion and hence said, “Hasan Ali always delivered with the ball for Pakistan in 2021, be it as a strike bowler or when it came to holding one end up. By far his best year in the longest format.”
While praising Shaheen Afridi’s performance ICC said, “It was a year for remember for Shaheen Afridi, especially in the longest form of the game. Extracting brilliant movement with the new ball and reversing it with the old. Still only 21, Shaheen will likely lead the Pakistan pace bowling unit for years to come and with already rapid improvements in his bowling, he will undoubtedly prove to be a fearsome prospect.”
The complete eleven comprises of the following players.
Kane Williamson (c), Kyle Jamieson, Dimuth Karunaratne, Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Marnus Labuschagne, Joe Root, Fawad Alam, Hasan Ali, and Shaheen Afridi.
