5 takeaways from the T20I series between Pakistan and West Indies

#3 – A truly ‘Wasim’ show

Imad Wasim set the tone by striking early

Unlike his esteemed namesake, Imad Wasim might not steam in and confound opposition batsmen with magical deliveries. However, the left-arm spinner operated shrewdly to tilt the momentum in Pakistan’s favor even before the Power Play overs could be completed.

The Welsh-born all-rounder pocketed nine wickets from the three games and deceived the hapless West Indies batting lineup with relentless accuracy. Not the one to rely on extensive turn, Wasim managed to weave webs around them by simply adhering to the contemporary style of limited-overs bowling. With his straighter ones doing majority of the damage, the 27-year old could be an asset in the ODIs as well.
