For years we have been looking for a spinner to take over. In modern history, it was Saeed Ajmal who was leading and than was replaced by Yasir Shah. In the meanwhile the likes of Zufiqar Babar and Abdur Rehman provided a supporting spin role with their left arm spin.

After Yasir Shah's pedophile case came up and he was not selected again, Pakistan has tried many spinners. Shadab, Nawaz, Qadir and Imad all came, but all these spinners had issues where some would not be able to turn the ball, while others cant even get their line and length.

Now here comes Abrar, turning the ball both ways, wasnt played in the world cup, and now has already started to have an impact in limited overs with his delivery turning both ways.

Is he the spinner that will lead the spin attack of Pakistan for the next 10 years?

Pedophile case? I wasn't aware of this, I thought it was poor form.

Regardless yes abrar will be main, He's a genuine quality spinner, He's not kuldeep or anything but he's good and will be crucial to Pakistan's success.

He's 100x better then usama, Nawaz, Shadab as a spinner. He's also not bad as a no 11, I've seen him tonk a few so pretty good. Good fielder and great fitness as well.

He's one of my favourite prospects.

Yasir helped his buddy who was a pedophile himself hook up with a underage girl.
 
A genuine spinner has been our missing link for so long. Hopefully Abrar grabs his chance
 
He's a work in progress and rough around the edges.

But definitely has the most potential of the lot.
 
I just hope he delivers well outside Pakistan, which in reality is a big deal.
 
4 overs, 1 or 2 wickets for less than 28 runs

Will take that from anyone bowling in the middle overs

May not be that much of a mystery if NZ batters get their heads together
 
He's not that good of a bowler but he's an even more pathetic fielder. So its better to keep him in Test cricket only.. he is not a white ball material.
 
Decent bowler for T20's. Will do well with batsmen going after him. Will increasingly struggle in Test cricket because he doesn't have the revs to genuinely best the best Test batters.
