NEW DELHI: Pakistan off-spinner Sajid Khan hilariously poked fun at himself, saying that Allah has given him such a look that even when he laughs, people get scared.
In a video that went viral on social media, Sajid was responding to a question about how he was intimidating opposing batters from one end while Noman Ali was taking wickets from the other, drawing a comparison to Pakistan’s legendary pace duo, Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis.
“Maine toh koi daraya nahi hai yaar, aap log kehete ki dara rahe ho, ab Allah ne look aisi di hai main hasta bhi hu toh log darr jate hain,” (I have not scared anyone, Allah has given us such a look and eyes that people get scared even if we laugh, what is my fault in this?) he said.
Noman and Sajid combined to dismantle England, leading Pakistan to a commanding nine-wicket win in the decisive third Test, securing a memorable 2-1 series victory on Saturday.
Pakistan had been in control after gaining a crucial first-innings lead of 77 on a pitch where spinners from both sides thrived.
Noman (6-42) and Sajid (4-69) bowled England out for a meager 112 in their second innings, leaving Pakistan with just 36 runs to chase for the series win.
Despite losing Saim Ayub early, Pakistan comfortably sealed the victory during an extended morning session on day three.
Noman and Sajid took 19 of England’s 20 wickets, with Pakistan opting not to use their lone seamer, Aamer Jamal, at all – a clear sign of the spin-friendly conditions. Since their mid-series selection, the duo claimed 39 of the 40 English wickets in the last two Tests.
