How did Mazai bowl? Contacts on the ground have said he's very similar to Richie when he was 18 and can swing the new ball
I think he destroyed the rangers in a match too.

That Ali Raza for Pak is going to be a great bowler. Some of those Pakistan players could bowl yorker's on command.

He's very much shorter than Richie, so I can't see him ever being that style of bowler.

Vitori seems a better comparison to me.

Why didn't he play in the previous game?
He's a decent bowler.

They're terrified about the weakness of the batting, so thought that they'd pack an extra batter in.

He certainly seems to be a better bowler than Chimoguro though.
