I remember watching him in the late 90s, and 2000, bowled with a lot of control, was tall but was not a flair player.
took abt 20 test wickets at 25 in 2000 with an e/r of about 2, then was dropped for the emerging kaneria and his test career was virtually over at 29.
kaneria was young, had flair and was a leggie with a quality googly, and at the time he seemed like he had a far higher ceiling.

always thought he had a role to play as a second spinner or backup but only played one more test after. pak pbly need an old school offie like him in the test team now.
