Pakistan’s strength in bowling doesn’t end with their fast bowlers and that’s where their variety with the ball comes to the fore. The middle overs are mostly handled by the spinners and Pakistan have quite a few of them to strangle the batsmen during crunch moments of an encounter.

They have a left-arm orthodox spinner in Imad Wasim, a right-arm wrist spinner in Shadab Khan, who had an astonishing debut against West Indies, and there’s also a couple of part-time spinners in Mohammad Hafeez and Shoaib Malik to chip in with vital overs.

It backs the fact that even in the spin department, the bowling isn’t one dimensional and it possesses several variations to disturb the momentum of the batsman.
