Salman Ali Agha is prepared to play as the "sole spinner" for Pakistan against Bangladesh

"I performed well when I played as a lone spinner in Australia," the spinner says.

Beginning on August 21 in Rawalpindi, the two-Test series against Bangladesh will feature Salman Ali Agha as the "sole spinner."

In order to target Bangladesh with all-pace tactics, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) earlier opted to release mystery spinner Abrar Ahmed from the first Test team.

Agha is the only consistent spinner on the team with Abrar out due to injury, and the all-round player is eager to contribute.

Salman stated at a news conference, "I have played as a lone spinner in Australia and did well there." "No pressure exists, and I'm prepared to take on the challenge.

"The Rawalpindi pitch appears to be greener and appears to favor fast bowlers more."

He went on to say that everyone on the squad supports one another as brothers and friends, which fosters a positive environment. "We have nothing to do with whatever is going on social media," he said.

Due to a back issue, all-round player Aamir Jamal was cut from the Bangladesh Test series team earlier today.

at the World Test Championship (WTC) 2023–25 cycle, the opening Test between Pakistan and Bangladesh will take place at Rawalpindi on August 21.

United's hero was Imad Wasim, who defied time with an incredible all-around effort. He claimed five wickets and was out in the middle when Hunain Shah angled the final delivery behind point to win United's third title. In Karachi today, the drama of the previous year's epic final, which the Sultans lost by a run, was undoubtedly surpassed. At several points during both innings, United looked to have won that match, but never more so than when they got the Sultans down to 127 for 9. However, Iftikhar Ahmed's cameo of an unbeaten 32 off 20 balls lifted the Sultans to 159, a score that they felt they had just about enough manpower to ...
