West Indies’ former legendary cricketer Ian Bishop, in a Tweet on Monday, highlighted the biggest challenge that Pakistan’s pacer Shaheen Shah could face during his career.

The 53-year-old stated that his workload needed to be managed effectively for the pacer to thrive in his career.

“Pakistan have a good one in Shaheen Shah Afridi. Management of his workload will be the biggest challenge in his career well done 6-51,” Bishop tweeted.

Shah took six wickets at the expense of 51 runs during the first innings of West Indies in the second Test at the Sabina Park in Kingston.

The 21-year-old’s efforts helped Pakistan bundle out West Indies for just 150 runs, giving the Men in Green a realistic chance of winning the second Test and leveling the two-match Test series.

Pakistan will be hoping that the fast-bowler can replicate his stunning performance during the second innings of the West Indies as well.
