WATCH: Sajid Khan scores a crucial half-century for Somerset

Pakistan players have been performing extremely well in the English condition and the latest to get the praise is offspinner Sajid Khan, who scored an unlikely half-century for Somerset.

Featuring alongside Imam-ul-Haq in the team, Sajid Khan came in when the team was struggling at 140 for 8. Earlier, Imam failed to get going as he was removed by Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj for only 5 runs.

Sajid Khan scored an unbeaten 53, his fourth-ever First Class half-century, which included nine boundaries.

Here's a glimpse of when Sajid hit the runs which led him to the half-century:

Somerset only managed 219 runs in the first innings against Warwickshire as Mohammed Siraj shined with a five-wicket haul. Henry Brooks also picked up three wickets while the other two were shared between Hannon-Dalby and Jayant Yadav.

Sajid Khan remained wicketless from his 18 overs as the rest of the Somerset bowlers combined to restrict the opposition to 196. Having a lead of 23 runs, Somerset again started abysmally as Imam-ul-Haq was again removed by Mohammed Siraj after five balls.
