  1. Salman Butt opens up major difference between India and Pakistan fast bowlers Former Pakistan captain Salman Butt feels that Pakistan’s pace bowlers need to develop their skills and earn experience by playing domestic cricket before getting into the comparisons with the Indian players. According to Butt, Pakistan bowlers like to bowl fast, which is not enough to succeed in the international level. Image source by twitter In an interaction on his YouTube channel, Butt shared why Pakistan’s fast bowlers need time to be compared to Indian pacers. He explained: “There is a difference in the skill levels. Skill is developed with experience and bowling lots of overs in first-class cricket. You have to work out batsmen in Test cricket, as they are in no hurry. It is a mental game and test of nerves. Pakistan’s bowlers are really young. There is Mohammad Hasnain, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah. Shahnawaz Dahani hasn’t played yet, and there are a few others. The combined experience of all these fast bowlers is less than 25-30 first-class matches.” “In India, Siraj alone has played over 40 first class games. Ishant Sharma would have played over 100 first-class games. Jasprit Bumrah too has credited the improvement in his bowling to Ranji Trophy. He was not selected in the Indian team by bowling two balls over 145 kph. Pakistan’s problem is that they are only obsessed with bowling at 140 kph regularly,” Butt further added. Notably, India pacers have been doing exceptionally well in recent times. They have even done well against England in the first Test also. Meanwhile, Butt also pointed out that, batsmen are not scared of pace and opined that Pakistan’s young pacers should play in the domestic cricket to get better in terms of skill.
