Watch: Wahab Riaz knocks Stuart Broad with an inswinging yorker: Wahab Riaz is in red hot bowling form. He is looking coarse and brutish against England in the ongoing Test series, bowling quick, accurate and rhythmic spells of fast bowling on a neutral spinning track at Abu Dhabi.
In the 1st innings, it was Wahab Riaz’s fine bowling display that reduced the English batsmen to dust. He finished with a figure of 4/66.
Wahab was bowling quick and swung the ball fairly well. It was visible that the England batsmen were having a tough time handling him in the middle.
He was bowling in the same way in the second innings today. The game is well set for Pakistan. But, Stuart Broad and Adil Rashid had developed a good partnership. Broad had slowly crawled to a score of 30 batting along with Rashid who was also batting well.
But, Pakistan did not wish to let Broad and Adil survive anymore. Unpredictably this partnership had become very serious issues for them and potented to snatch a well-deserved victory from Pakistan if they survived the remaining overs.
Leg spinner Yasir Shah and Wahab Riaz were putting in all efforts. Riaz was wicket-less in the innings till now but soon found a breakthrough. Finally, he took his only wicket of the day but in a very imposing manner.
Riaz had found a target in Broad and was constantly pressurizing him with quick bouncers and away swingers. At last, Broad had to depart as Riaz’s efforts paid off. He got rid of him with an inswinging yorker. It was an impeccable delivery which swung late and hit the base of the stumps. It was unplayable for Broad.
Riaz was delighted to see the stumps shattered. He was jumping and punching the air in joy.
