“He has a bit of Steve Smith in him…”Naseer Hussain draws a unique similarity between Kamran Ghulam and Steve Smith

Nasser Hussain a former captain of the English cricket Team showered praises on Kamran Ghulam making his debut from Pakistan for scoring an exemplary century in the second Test against England on October 12, also putting into consideration the batting technique used by the 29-year-old batsman, which was similar to that of the Australian Steve Smith. While Ghulam had to wait on the bench due to no place in the playing 11

In the course of the Sky Cricket, Nasser Hussain could not hide his admiration for Ghulam’s skills against England’s bowlers who were intent on swinging and slicing up fronts after allowing the batsman to take his guard at the crease. North Europe showed Ghulam swaggering on and taking charge as Ghulam suggests one got a rhythm and him and gripped the commanding tenor in control and patterning on a benevolent Multan surface.

“Of course, he had to wait his turn. He’s been a prolific run scorer for the last three years. He got the scales of attack and defence bang on. They lost a couple of early wickets – on debut you want to get out there and this will have helped him,” said Nasser Hussain.

“Pakistan players like to do the sweep shot, he has that in his armory. He also used his feet. He has a bit of Steve Smith in him regarding defending the ball and then going down the wicket. He carries himself with style,” Nasser Hussain further added.
