Pakistani pacer Naseem Shah to sign a county deal for 2022 season

Young Pakistani paceman Naseem Shah may be likely to sign a County deal for the 2022 season.

Famous sports journalist and owner of PakPassion.net, Sajid Sadiq, revealed on Twitter that the fast bowler is close to signing a deal with a county cricket club.

He further commented that it would prove to be a great learning opportunity for Naseem Shah.

The teenage pace sensation had earlier said that he always wanted to bowl like the New Zealand pacer, Shane Bond.

Bond’s bowling career was shortened by recurring injuries. However, in 18 Tests Bond played, he bagged 87 wickets at an average of 22.09. His numbers in ODIs were even better as he took 147 in 82 ODIs at an average of 20.88.

In a video shared by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), Naseem said that when he played tape-ball cricket, people used to tell him that he should play hard-ball cricket.
