Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Ramiz Raja heaped praise on emerging pacer Shahnawaz Dahani, who has enlightened the sense of the game in interior Sindh.

The 23-year-old, who hails from a village near Larkana, has emerged into the Pakistan side after his remarkable performances in domestic cricket in HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL).

Ramiz, during 'PCB honours its Heroes and Stars' ceremony, thanked 'inspiring' Dahani for making cricket popular in Sindh

"Dahani is an inspiration and icon for young cricketers in interior Sindh. He made cricket popular in an area where the game was not well known," Ramiz said.

"Thank you so much because now youngsters of Sindh want to play cricket because of you," he added.

Ramiz Raja on a lighter note also said that if he continues to play like this, he might win the election in Sindh too.

It must be noted that PCB honoured the T20 World Cup squad and other star performers of the year 2021 in a ceremony held at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
