Shaheen has been impressing everyone with his bowling performances in the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) and as the captain of Lahore Qalandars, he has also earned praise from Shoaib Akhtar for his all-round performance.”If you are surviving Shaheen’s first over and also hitting a six, it means that you are playing very well as he is the number one bowler in the world right now,” he said.Featured Video Of The Day”Difficult Time”: Wrestlers Vinesh Phogat, Sakshi Malik On Protest Against Wrestling BodyTopics mentioned in this article
