Earlier, the head coach of Heats Daniel Vettori praised the leggie from Pakistan.

“I think Shadab is one of the bright young stars of world cricket known to people for his leg spin. What we have found from the last two years is that with the skills set of someone like Samuel Badree can really work at Gabba, and Shadab brings that same sort of skill set,” said Vettori.
